I think another thing that's being missed is that, due to EPA regulations, cars aren't really all that sexy anymore. The Maserati MC20 is a V6. The C63 AMG is has dropped from its namesake 6.3-liter V8 already, and will soon be a small displacement twin-turbo i4. That's not very exciting. This wouldn't be problematic if the replacement were better, but it's not. Try going on a long road trip in an electric car: depending on your origin and destination, it may or may not be possible. It will take a significant multiple of the time it would've taken in an ICE car. It's no wonder today's youth aren't interested in anemic ICE cars - they aren't as cool or exciting as they used to be. And electric cars are only really viable/useful for the rich (with garages to charge them in) and/or those who live in densely populated areas where they don't have to drive very far... and those places usually have viable public alternatives that young people without families are happy to use instead.
