We should all be familiar with electrified vehicles by this point. They have recently gained widespread acceptance in the automotive industry, largely as a result of their popularity boom and the attention given to government regulations that virtually outlaw fossil fuel vehicles. However, there are differing views on whether electric vehicles are “the future,” which is logical considering that they are still a relatively new technology and how they threaten the ways we now drive and refill our cars.

As with many other cutting-edge technologies, EVs are the subject of false information. The discussion over whether or not to go electric is one that never ends and requires a lot of unpacking. To mention a few, there is the ongoing and serious climate catastrophe, the cost of EVs is still a concern, and the whole “will I be stranded in the middle of nowhere if I can’t find a place to charge my car” thing.
