Electric cars are getting as cheap as gasoline rivals

1. To get me into a totally-electric car, I would need a reliable. . .

. . .charging system close by (I live in a condo, not a regular house) as well as charging stations along my usual routes (commuter, etc). Perhaps a system where the car roof is like a PV panel whereas one could charge up the car while it's sitting in a parking lot, soaking up the sun.

Otherwise, and until the aforementioned items come to pass, I will still opt for a hybrid like the Toyota Prius. For me, that will be the bridge to totally-electric cars.

Still, I DO support EVs. AFAIC, as the EV technology expands and becomes more affordable, gas-combustion engines will go the way of the horse-and-buggy.

Let's be patient and get used to the fact that there will still be obstacles and setbacks along this path. But it's getting there. One step at a time.
