Just because American Motors went away, it doesn’t mean cars are a bad idea.

Just because it’s a good idea doesn’t mean the science was good.

EEStor was not the only one researching better capacitors: Graphene-based supercapacitor offers energy density comparable to NiMH battery, but with rapid charge and discharge

It might take a bit longer, but after centuries of snake oil we also have cured the Syphillis and eradicated Polio.

Your analogy is better than mine.

Time will tell if they ever are able to bring a product to market. Energy density comparable to lithium batteries is great for a capacitor but we really need something an order of magnitude greater. Lithium is no longer adequate for the new generations of electronic devices and has never been adequate for a car.
