I would say my biggest issue is just the lack of customization in general to the powerrain aside from tuning. Because those electric motors and batteries are not cheap to just swap out for upgrades. So effectively you are locked down to whatever vehicle you have performance wise plus whatever a "stage 1 tune" will do. The age of being able to build your 300hp car to 1000hp so to speak are over
It's going to be tough to say just yet, keep in mind battery and motor prices will continue to drop, and engine swaps and conversions aren't cheap either, and even harder to do. A bigger more powerful motor could easily be under $10k, even less than $5k and take a few hours to swap out. This industry isn't even in its infancy, there is a lost more to come before anyone can write it off, thanks!

Keep in my mind hydrogen is coming on strong too, just watching what’s coming out of Europe.
