1. Is BS and you know it. Check out how often Baumschlager has to charge and compare it with refuels for petrol rally cars, Baumschlager himself says it's like driving Lancers. Some changes to itenary might be needed but that's it.

2. Yes the cars need some sound, Baumschlager, Paddon and now Corsa-e are all testing different solutions. Managable problem.

Stating that electric cars definitely won't come by 2025 (as stated by someone in the article) makes sure no new manus show up.
