I believe we can significantly reduce diesel and petrol car usage by 2035, though complete elimination may be difficult. We have about 10 years to improve infrastructure for electric vehicles (EVs), enhance their range, and address concerns about reliability. Hybrid cars will likely become more prevalent during this time.

However, achieving this goal in my country by 2035 might be challenging. Our infrastructure is limited, and technology is not evenly distributed, making it difficult for people to adopt EVs.

We need to move as quickly as possible along the path of reducing the use of diesel and gasoline engines in cars, which terribly pollute the environment, and switch to more environmentally friendly ones, including electric cars. Whether we manage to do this before 2035 or not is no longer so important. We must even try to speed up this transition, because the climate in different regions of the planet has become more dangerous and is getting worse every year. And this will lead to the flooding of many territories, mass migration of people, intensification of various natural disasters, and so on.

I see that work in this direction is being carried out quite actively. From time to time you hear about improvements in battery efficiency; yesterday in the news they said that a charger had been invented in England that could charge an electric car in just five minutes. A rapid transition to electric vehicles is simply inevitable.

Society has been complaining about pollution for ages, but people seems to care little about it. Remember Greenpeace ? They have been fighting against pollution for half a decade. Still no significant result is seen.

I havent heard about such super quick chargers, that were invented recently, but even if they did, a question about safety comes first to my mind. Electric car battery isnt tiny AAA battery or powerbank size battery. Its huge. Charging it in 5 minutes, means transferring a huge amount of electricity in short time. It will be kind of a electric shocker or defibrillator strike, a lightning. Will it be safe? If something goes wrong, a person that is in the car during charging might get hurt.
