If the realities of the environmental effects of coal-based generation didn't work effectively, the economies of alternate energy sources might: https://energynews.us/2021/05/05/solar-and-winds-competitiveness-over-coal-is-accelerating-analysis-shows/ When greener options prove to be even more...

Well, to be fair, Rivian has its clunky past as Mainstream/Avera, so their 1.0 iteration was similarly unimpressive. https://www.motorauthority.com/news/avera-motors

The fob controls both. If there's a phone app, then likely there as well.

It's a "2% solution." When adoption is still in its relative infancy then a thrown bone of charging in a hotel or steakhouse parking lot is appreciated. The infrastructure will grow with demand and, for now, a onesy-twosy charging location is welcome. It will not be a solution long-term but the...

My point was to stop looking at this from a current technology standpoint. What applies today will is irrelevant as EVs go beyond the current 2% of sales and technological advances pop up. Norway is implementing induction chargers in roads, the UK is exploring electrifying utility poles for...

You need to think a little less 2021. Induction charging is coming and future implementation is unimaginable by current standards. There are 150,000 or so publicly-accessible charging stations out there today and there will be millions added in the coming decade.

Not sure if this is indicative of a trend but the Holiday Inn Express that popped up about a mile from my house (in a mostly residential area) put in a pair of L2s (as did the steakhouse about a mile from there).

Not exactly realistic to assume that there will be zero growth in energy production capacity in 15 years. Renewables generate roughly the same amount of our energy as (rapidly declining) coal in 2021 and production has more than doubled since 2000. No reason to believe that trend won't continue...

Samsung is also supplying BMW and Fiat

Yes, clearly a pre-production inquiry to a prospective customer help site that is likely bound by what can be disclosed before formal announcements are made is an indicator of post-purchase customer service. You sure have their number.
