Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment.

That's not true. The battery cost remains a substantial part of their cost, and is expensive for big and small vehicles.
We're only just reaching the point now where costs have come down and it's even possible to consider smaller vehicles that would be competitive and profitable.
