[QUOTE="Klaus, post: 16896135, member: 190070"] Plant based meats are a good analogy to EVs in my opinion. When these first rolled out there was a lot of enthusiasm that these would capture market share from meat. And based on the initial uptake this assessment seemed reasonable. It turns out the problem is that only 10% of the population actually wants these and that number has not budged since the roll out. It turns out plant based meats were a huge failure because they could never expand past the zealots. I see a parallel with EVs. As with plant based meats, the policy makers and media bubble are all in the zealot camp. They think there is actual demand for this product because everyone agrees with them. Outside the bubble there is no demand for this product. Hybrids are a good example. On the surface these seem like a great product but no one actually wants them and they have died as a category. It is hard to see how brute government force does not backfire.
