    That’s awesome. Also shows how much oil companies have hindered the development of electric vehicles. Every other tech has 100x in 125 years, electric vehicles only became somewhat mainstream in the last 10-15?

      Batteries have limited the development of electric vehicles. The only reason why battery research existed was consumer electronics. As for the motors, they really have not changed much in 125 years because they are already very efficient.
