Editor:
I read you article on slow uptake of electrical vehicles and reasons for it. Have you gone to any dealers in the last year? They have no cars to sell.
I am on the waitlist for: Hyundai Kona, one-plus year wait; EV 6, 1.5 to two-year wait; ID.4, can't get one where I live; Bolt, one-plus year; F150 lightning, 1.5 to three years.
It isn't people that are slow to make the change. It is the fact of no supply. Show me where I can go to a lot and get one of the vehicles listed above and I would gladly do it.
Instead I sit on waitlist after waitlist since January of this year. Maybe don't be afraid to put the onus on where the slo down of adopting into this belongs: the manufacturers.
The 2030/2035 goal for no gas-powered vehicles is quite ridiculous when you are waiting over a year for the car. Sad. But hard to ignore.
