I would be interested in electric vehicles and toys when they are functional and meet all my needs, including safely having the range I need to drive. I live in Wyoming and it is not uncommon to have 70+ miles between locations with services. If the batteries were not functioning at optimal level, I might not make it there. They are going to have to do better than that.
Sure they are, but that doesn't mean the majority of people who commute on a bike can't take advantage of the technology as it is. Electric bikes aren't being marketed for cross country trips any more than scooters are.
