    Crystal ball is out again Predict in 2yrs time a 500 mile range will be the norm And 600 miles within 3yrs Thats when imo things will really take off

    Well my predictions are to be exceeded Breakthrough battery powers electric car 1,000 km from single charge Mass production of Nio’s next-generation battery set to begin in April 2024 https://www.independent.co.uk/tech/electric-car-new-battery-nio-et7-b2468230.html

    This will indeed be excellent when real world (as opposed to claimed) range can match ICE cars . Hopefully the advances in technology will also address the severe winter drops in range of EVs, which are currently far in excess of ICE cars and, finally, when an empty to full charge takes no longer than the 5 minutes that it takes to achieve this in an ICE car. I have no doubt that all of this will be achieved in time. Frankly, it has to in order to convince the majority to make the change.
