I was referring to 1:1 cars only.
The Tesla sedan is an awesome car.
The actual batteries are still too heavy, are very sensitive to low temperatures (a charge that lasts 500km in 25*C will be only good 300km or less in -X *C), still need rare elements, loose stamina year after year and still cost very much. And not to forget the charging time is several hours.
These are all problems that need to be solved in the upcoming years to make e-cars are full and better alternative.
