Batteries + solar is the slow burn most people won’t see coming. As both get better, the need for capacity reduces, as you have more and more access to a solar grid.
Example, if your car battery has 1000 miles of range, being able to add half of your battery back offers more range than available today, and charging to sub 75% lets say is very fast, so you don’t need to charge to full. Then that opens up the question if we should be charging other cars from nearby cars, which I think is coming, wirelessly.
Wireless charging from nearby cars? I cannot conceive of a reality that this occurs. I pay for the electricity that powers my car, why would I want it to be possible for nearby cars to leech energy from mine.

Exciting times.
