Its by no means certain that ICEs will get sufficient investment to improve as much as you say. Dieselgate, carbon taxes and outright bans in much of the developed byworld, China and India choked with pollution make it a risky proposition.

Morgan Stanley predicts EVs will reach price parity with ICE in 2025 and then continue to get cheaper.
