False dichotomy. What ICEs are or aren't has zero impact on whether BEVs are the future.

You can pretty much see the writing on the wall; sure, one can bury one's head in the sand, but it is almost certain that in say 15-20 years, BEV will become the majority of vehicles on the road even if the US and Germans fight to the very end to keep ICE alive.

Yes, Betamax is undoubtedly the future.
