But all of those are still true. I would argue that public transport should replace cars for commute which is most of the "non-niche" usage.

Public transport can't get you anywhere, on your own terms? Sounds familiar.

They are not simultaneously true. The new Model S Long Range has 412 mi range. All of them can tow, but they are all fairly expensive.

The cheapest Model 3 isn't cheap, but definitely getting there.

It's better but not great. Not everyone can afford tesla. Western goverments and big companies are to blame for lack of incentives and infrastructure. People buy what makes the most sense, and petrol is better for many people. This can be changed.

I think that everyone would instantly switch to EV if it had the same properties but had a battery instead of a tank. They are faster, silent, cleaner, but it's up to leaders to bridge the gap making them economically viable.
