About that infrastructure: it isn’t only about charging infrastructure. If most cars become electric cars that weigh twice as much as existing cars and accelerate much faster, wear and tear on road surfaces and bridges will go up (or won’t it? Will accelerating more smoothly offset that?)

Certainly, in the USA, a country that already has problems maintaining its road infrastructure, that could become problematic.
