I appreciate your concerns.
1) It's currently 4.3%, not 1%.
You're saying 4.3% of all cars on the road today in the USA are full EV's?
I ask because I have seen electric car figures that include plug-in hybrids as well as non plug-in hybrids. IOW, if it uses electric power in some way to move the vehicle it counts as an electric car. So the information source had better define what is an EV, otherwise, things get confusing fast.
Every source I have checked has full EVs at about 1% of the total number of cars on the road in the USA. EVs make up about 4.5% of current new car sales, not 4.5% of all cars on the road. Hybrid sales are also going up fast. They are about 5% of sales. But, ICE still rules the road.
