As far as Leno's comment, I don't think he means ICE will be gone in that period, but EV will be popular enough that the kid could be surrounded by EV. Kind of like asking a 20 year old kid meow aboot carburetor pilot jets.

You truly are an idiot that has no grasp on reality. Besides the cost for the infrastructure to deliver that much electricity, how the F do you produce that much electricity?
Please John S, if you still not abide by the new rules, at least have an adult proof read your posts prior to posting them. Dumb ass.

Not to mention the cost of EV's and the cost of replacement batteries when the time comes. Going all electric will price a lot of people out of cars.

But what aboot the cost of roads? But what about the cost of building places to store and dispense gasoline? But what aboot...
This happens over and over throughout time. Adapt and evolve, or become extinct. This is the real problem with our healthcare system. Close minded people are living too long. Back in the day, technology advanced as new ideas were brought in by young, energetic minds, and the old, decrepit minds went to Florida for the winter. Meow, the guy that thinks his '68 289 could still wax a Tesla 3S still has a vote, so unfortunately is still relevant.
Also, even if/when a battery goes, it can be recycled and reused. Not all the elements of that battery go bad. Most the car can also be recycled. It's the future, don't be scared of it, embrace it.

if you look at the end to end process of getting gasoline to your car then think about getting electricity to your car
The Gasoline path already exists but I reckon the electric path will cost less and less as it moves from LPG fired plants to renewables?
The cities ban ICE and there you have a kid living the future as Jay said

IMO, hybrid power will be the way things go in the near future. Full electric just doesn't make sense on a large scale.

And, after a few decades we will have all the residue from the batteries to deal with. I still believe we need another power source akin to hydrogen generation built into the vehicle. Still a ways into the future. Tech we can't even envision yet. Batteries are just another stepping stone imo.
