#4I am going to buy a new car soon and I think it will be the last time gasoline will be available for me. I'm going 4x4 so there's not much EV options.

#5I read the following article today and was quite impressed. It's the worlds 2nd largest auto market and Tesla is doing very well there. The factory is not at full production and still they managed to be the best selling EV.

I felt the same way. My wife and I bought a model y in November and we love it. If I could get an electric Tacoma I would, but I think I’m going to have to get into the cyber truck if I want an electric truck.

#7Vaguely curious why this is the case, if people are respecting the pandemic.

There were some compelling new EVs and price drops around the pandemic time frame. For example we bought a Model Y.
A pandemic is also a great time to get a car, because prices had dropped with many incentives, but also driving to go on socially distant hikes is a great way to stay healthy and break things up.

#10I’ll be interested to see the lifespan of EVs for “normal” people. I’ve got a 2012 Nissan LEAF we bought post-lease in 2015. I love it still, and don’t have any plans to replace it. The battery is not in great shape, but it gets me where I need to go. I am genuinely considering replacing the battery rather than buying another EV when the battery finally fails.
