Yeah, I honestly think if people want EV's they'll just buy Tesla's. They have the brand name/power and prestige. So many of my son's friends who aren't even car people aspire to own Tesla's. They are seen as the "cool cars," today.

I also think the Mach-E has a good chance in the market due to its price, name and specs, and decent looks. The Hummer as well, but the price is a bit steep but looks to have gained interest. The iX will probably be the one to bet on seeing that SUV's are in and sedans are out. I am more than curious if anything to see how the market will react to BMW's newest EV's. These are important products, if they fail BMW will be in big trouble.
