I don't think anyone has given any indication that they are settling for EVs in their current state? Most are in agreement that EVs are still in their infant stage (think brick cell phones). As the technology improves, weights should come down, batteries will become smaller and more efficient. We'll probably see this happen within the next 5-10 years.
