EV drivers have realized this over 10 years ago. It's the ICE and fossil industries that are trying to delay everyone else from realizing the same. They want as much of your money as they can get before you realize EVs are better.
VW are a part of that side that lobbied to delay as much as possible too in fact, they were trying to hold on to their diesel designs for as long as humanly possible and only made their first serious EV in 2020, literally a decade after Nissan and after every other major manufacturer except for Subaru, Mazda and Toyota who still hopes hydrogen will be something.
Them preaching about EVs has to be some guiness world record for hypocrisy.
