It would certainly be different if the batteries were recyclable or re-usable in a mainstream sense. They're not, so it's just hazardous waste that we're putting in the ground all the time.
Correct EV's should be another option of types of vehicles you can buy along with ICE or hybrid, etc... That makes the most sense and I believe in the end that is what will happen. That is my opinion... but if anyone here (including myself) believes they can tell you what the auto landscape will be 5, 10 years from now, they are doing nothing but giving you their opinion.

Ask Ford (who's EV's are sitting) if they still plan to go full EV by 2035. Doubtful. ICE is going to be here for a long time, especially if leadership in Washington changes, mandates are rolled back, and gas prices come back down.

As far as the Camaro goes... It doesn't surprise me that gm stopped producing it. I drove the lot the other day (I was bored) it was all crossovers and pick-ups Oh and by the way all the crossovers look exactly the same. It's a multiband lot by me, so it wasn't all gm. I left the lot with my wife and said, man there is not one single vehicle on that lot that would cause me to part with my cash. It's sad... There is not one EV that would make me part with my money. Every single Tesla model is gut wrenching hideous. The EV Silverado is about the only thing I find somewhat appealing, but $110k... Bwhaaaa Haaaaaa ... Never
