Thanks I'll give that a more thorough read later on. I'm well aware that EVs have been around for a very long time, but for about 100 of those years there were so few being built that no one can possibly claim that a lot of money and effort were going into battery tech research for cars like what was going into ICE research. For most of that time the public probably didnt even know they existed or ever had existed. Also, for all but the last 20 years, and really only about the last 10, all the battery tech was lead acid from my understanding.This just isn’t true. Many seem to assume that we’ve barely scratched the surface and some amazing breakthrough technology is just right around the corner. That’s more science fiction than science unfortunately.
Here’s some good reading:

EVs weren't born yesterday.
