    Now I’m vaguely curious what a mad-max type car barbarian apocalypse setting would look like in a world where everyone had transitioned to EVs long before the apocalypse

      You’d hear the roar of the baseball cards in their tire spokes long before you see the bicycle horde coming over the sand dune.

        Would it be possible to make more? I don’t imagine one could manufacture something on the level of a modern EV battery without modern industrial equipment, but electric vehicles technically existed even at the point where cars were first getting invented, made by individual inventors and such, just with much lower speed and range. How useful a vehicle like that would be I’m not sure, but if there’s no easily obtainable oil around, maybe better than nothing?
