With the evolution of batteries, it looks as though internal combustion engines will be relegated to some pretty narrow niches - if not supplanted entirely.

But there's something about them that EVs can never really replace, and it doesn't seem to even have a name. Internal Combustion Engines are "alive" in a way that electric motors can never be.

Don't care. It's our world, technology should exist on our terms.

Even if electric motors and batteries win every race, (video) is something they can never really do (unless through a pathetic bunch of fake technological theater).
Yes, and then it's over - forever if the government wants it that way, because you can't produce your own gasoline.
With solar you can keep on driving locally until your car or solar array breaks.
Wood gas is quite complex and requires a bunch of annoying hardware along with it. So putting it in a car is dumb.

It's much more effective to keep the wood gas rig stationary and use it to charge the car. And in the summer you can just charge with solar panels so you don't even need the wood.
