To be fair, this data doesn’t adjust for the age of the vehicles. Older gas-powered cars fail at a higher rate than the new ones and electric vehicles are obviously much more recent on average.

Duh.

Imagine a world where EV1 kicked off the EV revolution in the 90s and 2000s, and we were living 15 years in the future.

In For All Mankind the EV1s were released in the 1980s.

Huh, had no idea about the EV1. I'm bitter that the Volt was cancelled.
