Here’s my perspective, but it might be pretty wrong:

I think the reason for the low demand is due in large part to the pre-existing gas industry, at least in the US. Not just because of marketing advertising gas-powered more, but also because people don’t like to change, and buying a new car is not cheap. Not to mention that the US infrastructure is so heavily solidified in gas. It’s just easier to continue buying gas-powered because it’s already so supported across the country. Then the industry benefits from this because they can say, “oh, huh, looks like people still want gas-powered! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯” and so the cycle repeats.

I think a lot of people don’t really understand how much power corporations really have over what the people do or don’t do, like or don’t like, etc… 99% of the time people will take the easy option, and corps take advantage of that by making the easy option the cheapest and best for themselves instead of what’s best for the people. Corporations only do what’s right for them, and are masters of making it out to be that that’s what the people want.

They fly now.

Is the chess community nice?
