It won't make a difference.
Battery deployments have already turned a profit on their original cost for stationary storage. There are enough clever businessmen out there that can now see the proof of this that the stationary storage market will explode. While I can see consumers not buying cars when they should because of disinformation the growth and improvement in batteries will continue without that. At some point they will change when it becomes a lot better than ICE.
But the consumer car market is a fuckup anyway because we should be working on getting cars off the road and funding public transport.
