I've got nothing against EV's as a concept, I just don't care for Tesla design philosophy when it comes to the basic functionality of a car. Watching people trying to make a 3 point turn with a yolk steering wheel and a touchpad gear selector is just painful. I understand being innovative and trying to do new things....as long as you actually make them better. Don't make basic functionalities difficult and distracting, particularly with something as critical as steering.
Now that other companies, other than Tesla, are coming out with EV's I'm becoming much more receptive. By the time I'm due for another vehicle I'll be giving EV's a close look. I'd absolutely love if Mazda came out with an electric version of the MX-5, and there's talk that the next generation MR2 might be all-electric as well. That could be sooooooo sweet.
