Arrow Many EV's will be autonomous, and you may never even own one

Not to spoil the party, but the period of owner-driven electric cars is likely to be relatively short. The future is fleets of autonomous electric cars with monthly contracts or pay by the ride. The move to electric cars is really a move to autonomous cars. It will lead to much safer and much faster commutes but a lot less fun. Aficionados will keep a car at the track for the weekend ride much the same way horses are kept at a stable. The upside is pretty big - 30,000 fewer car deaths a year in the US alone. But the folks inhabiting this site will certainly feel a sense of loss. So go for it while you can.
