Article makes a lot of good points about the negligible EV innovation in the US due to major oil and gas producer interests. It seems like a chicken or the egg problem in the US where high power charging networks aren't built because there's not enough EVs on the road to demand better access while there's not enough EVs on the road because of a lack of charger access. Seems like unless there's a miraculous shift in US domestic EV cell production, the US is content to be left behind with overpriced ICE vehicles
Yes, they've really fucked themselves.
