An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

    Absolutely, just like there’s some things a horse can do that a car just can’t.

    I don’t plan on buying a horse or needing to do those things, and I don’t think the vast majority do either.

    The end result is that there will still be ICEs in niche applications, but those who know how to operate them and the supply chains that currently make them cheap and dominant will slowly die off.
