No doubt batteries are getting better all the time. But they're still hard to recycle, and and lithium mining isn't exactly environmentally friendly itself. I'm still hoping for either a different electrolyte or some new design method that makes them easier to disassemble and recycle. I'll be looking for a new car in probably 5 years, I really hope I'll feel good about EV's by then.
