Gel and lithium-ion tech could enable 1000-mile EV range on one charge

The problem is we can't keep the same resources waste up. Lower range and smaller cars is what is needed. The perfect car of the future would be a one-seater that is as small and light as a electric velomobile (~70kg). Build a few millions of them and replace all cars in a city with those. Ideally self driving and as a robo-taxi, but even without the self driving this would be good. Of course cars isn't really that high on the list for climate change.
But as a civilization we are simply not an intelligent species.
