Peak davos, maybe. These central planners have too many footguns but maybe those don't even work. It's up to us to lead the way toward reality and truth.
As for peak EV, I doubt it but depends how you define it. I expect battery tech will see a lot of improvement. The scale that's been achieved is going to spur even more R&D investment. Charging stations will become ubiquitous. That being said, it seems gas is going to rule for decades unless they become cheaper to buy.

worth noting that EV numbers rarely include electric scooters, bikes, or other vehicles that don’t have 4 wheels.
if they did, global EV sales would already exceed gas vehicle sales.

I'm glad you brought this up, because it's actually in these smaller EVs that I see a lot of potential. My wife got an electric bike and that thing is pretty sweet. As soon as some local road construction gets finished, I can easily imagine taking it to the store instead of the car.

Do they play the same games with gas scooters? Hoping to get to apples to apples.

that would be a cool comparison, but i think the low prices and wide array of manufacturers of scooters makes it much harder to get reliable data
