On the balance, this is speeding the adoption of EVs.
I've been able to sell them (not Teslas, EVs in general) to my right-wing coworkers by simply talking about their performance characteristics. Electric motors outperform combustion engines and so these cars feel powerful while driving.
If the right's talking heads want to own the libs by making their identity based around electric vehicles, it doesn't bother me.
