If I were a betting man, I would say that this fad will pass. There are more factors at work than meets the eye.
Overall environmental damage is a big factor. When taken into account, the environmental damage from lithium mines, disposal of batteries, and actual differences in production methods/costs/materials will all come into play.
Electric vehicles have been around since the late 19th century. They were deemed impractical then. But, dreamers continue to push for them with billionaire boy Musk being the latest.
Cost will play a BIG role in the success or failure of EVs. Like the guy that was given a repair estimate of over $22,000. How many Tesla owners could foot the bill for that? How many would?
Personally, I don't care one way or the other. If you want one, go right ahead and buy one. Personally, I don't want one. I don't begrudge anyone that wants one. I DO object to statements that say that one day I will be driving one.
It simply is NOT a matter of acknowledging change. Also, not a matter of acceptance. Last I checked, we were all free to buy whatever we like within the limits of our budget constraints.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
