In 2010 the price of lithium ion batteries was over a $1000 per kwa but have fallen to $200/kwa and are supposed to be $100/kwa in 2020 and eventually will be $25/kwa.

These batteries are increasing in density by about 6-7 percent per year

The new batteries which are solid state batteries have been made in the lab and many different groups are scaling up to try to manufacture. They are cheaper, charge very fast, don't heat up and cause fires and don't need to be cooled.

A lot of the cost to make a ice car and repair an ice is the drive train plus a fuel system, exhaust system, and cooling system. Because EV have none of that, they are easier to make than ice cars.

Eventually the EVs will be very cheap and many people who make their living on ice cars and producing the fuel will be displaced

It took me a few minutes to figure out what an "ice" car was ...

I do not share your belief in your powers of prediction.
