I recently bought a 2021 MINI SE EV. I use it for running around on errands and recharge it from time to time on the 110 house service. I use down to 20% and charge up to 80%. The range is short, about 150 miles at 100% charge under the best conditions. It is a lot of fun to drive with impressive performance. It serves my purposes very well. It would not work well as an only vehicle. We'll see how it goes but so far exceeding expectations.

There also seems to be a growing interest in converting vintage vehicles to electric. I don't know how far this will go, but it is beginning to grow.

I don't think driving range will be the big problem as many EVs are at 350 miles, which is about the range of most gas powered vehicles. The problem I see is the time to recharge. High power recharges still take 30 or more minutes to recharge. Lots of problems to solve, but they will get solved and our driving habits will change with them.
