I think that we will find that electric cars are useless after ten years. That will mean that those who rely on the used car market in order own a car will be screwed. Not everyone wants, needs, or can afford a new car. But there will be no choice if electrics are forced on us. And there is no way that the grid can handle them.

So the formerly middle class will learn the joys of mass transit.

The rich get the cars and the rest of us ride the bus.

Great plan.... and it IS planned.

Electric car batteries can degrade quite a lot after 10 years, meaning the already short range gets even shorter.
