TBF there was a VW Electric Car recall, clearly their models had some liabilities. Hopefully they continue to keep their word and improve to become the top EV brand in the next few years.

They seem like it, saw a video where it beat BMW and Mercedes in efficiency and fast charging.

But to be fair I hate cars like hell. It would be completely fine to have 5% of the cars on our roads, and still be fossile

Yeah, and road expansion needs to stop as well. It's already ridiculous in the USA, it makes communities less walkable.
