Statistics can be made to prove or disprove anything, the reality is that over the last 4 yrs electric cars have hardly increased their share at all. Lack of government incentive is one reason along with initial cost and limited range, EVs will be the norm in maybe 10yrs time, at present we just have early adopters.

As for electric aeroplanes, short duration trainers maybe and recreational planes but the energy density is far to small it needs a 10 fold increase to be really useful and thats a long way off
