Unless it's a satirical page, it's called "car enthusiasts suck", so I'd read it as "we got out muscled by big oil once before, let's not let it happen again".

Edit: In comparison, the famous Ford Model T went up to 42mph compared to the 25mph of this electric car.

It had a 10 gallon petrol tank which I can't easily find the fuel economy stats for. Needless to say I expect the range of the Ford to be much higher than the electric car.

For a lot of people, I imagine it would mostly have came down to the same arguments as today: range, size, and upfront cost.

The Model T was a humble 20-25 MPG, so it had a decent range of up to 250mi iirc
