It would be a foolish investment. I think this really is about as good as it gets.
They said that 10 years ago too, and yet, here we are, with 400HP cars that also get over 30 MPG.

I’m not saying electric won’t eventually win, because if battery tech continues to improve, it will (and so will many other electronic devices). The problem is batteries. They’re heavy, and not super dense for the amount of energy they hold. That’s what makes liquid fuels continue to be relevant; the amount of energy they hold in a single drop is pretty incredible.
