Later same type of people switched to Porsche Taycan. Next type was BMW3 drivers that switched to Model 3 Performance, Polestar 2 performance or lately BMW i4/ Ioniq 5 N/ EV6 GT.

Similarly, before that you would get people switching from Volvo diesel to T8 plug-in hybrid partly because of much more power.

Neither of these are "green people at bike shows."

But off course there would be much fewer switching if the EV or hybrid was much more expensive. Which is why manus wanted to promote Hybrids/EVs to people that actually are likely to spend more money on a car. "Green people at bike shows" won't.
And none of those are the kind that comes to watch rallying.
