Except that there is now an EV Transit which Ford has high hopes for. So, it is competing with the ICE Transits for production line space.
Yeah, and if it's good, those delivery companies may still be buying all the inventory until the start-ups like Rivian, Canoe, and others ramp up production. But since ramp-up is slow, it will be many years away.
I have a tri-motor Cybertruck on order that is supposed to have 500 mile range. I also have a deposit on a CyberLandr bed camper that fits entirely in the "vault" when retracted. No increased wind resistance and only an estimated 5% range reduction for the 1300+lbs of weight.
In both cases, production is about a year or two out (I'm not very high on the Cybertruck reservation list) and the $100 refundable deposits mean I'm not risking anything. I do need a vehicle in the near future, so the Cybertruck will most likely be purchased. But the CyberLandr camper may just be too compromised to be a "b" replacement. But one of those ev vans may fit the bill sometime in the future.
I will never buy another gas vehicle. I'm not an environmentalist (although I take responsibility and think we should have as little negative impact as possible). I also do not think government should pick winners and losers by giving away our tax dollars as ev incentives. I merely think the writing is on the wall for an ev future and time has come that ev's are (in most cases) superior vehicles.
Plus, I keep my cars a long time. The thought of my car doing all or most of the driving for me in 5-10 years gets more appealing as each year passes.
