Don’t want to take the thread off topic, but will simply say that the 10’s of billions being invested into EV R&D by the industry is what is likely to write the story. Once this investment brings the cost to manufacture an EV below the cost to manufacture an ICE vehicle, we should not be surprised to see a paradigm shift similar to the one that led the iPhone (and its competitors) in your example to essentially wipe out the traditional wired phone.

If you want to know the future, the best crystal ball you have is to follow the money.
