EV's aren't fit for long distance. They will be GREAT for daily commutes in cities where they will massively reduce noise and improve air quality, but... Most cities have way worse problems than noise and air pollution.
Electric cars as a commute device in a city are in my view pretty bad unless you have a lot of money to burn. The much better solution is an electric scooter and even better than that (although more niche) is an electric unicycle.
Both the scooter and the EUC are portable door to door solutions and they both can be supplemented by public transportation. A car of any kind is just a big headache in a major city and should only be used if you really can't use other options.
Allow me to introduce you to wind, rain, and snow.
True but that is why I added the bit about supplementing with public transit. I own a car & motorcycle, for me the absolute best way to get around NYC is a PEV. I only use public transit in bad weather.
