The universe I'm talking about is the universe of reality. Car manufacturers are racking in big bucks in SUV purchases and are not going to suddenly have an epiphany, drop the production of current SUVs, return all of their year-end bonuses after realizing their failure in advancing future technologies. Something is better than nothing IMO. I can fantasize about the world I'd like to live in but wake up everday in the world I do live in. Like everything else it's going to take time to deliver better vehicles and will also take time for the public to truely accept them.
