No, electric vehicle sales aren’t dropping. Here’s what’s really going on::Tesla has been slashing prices. Ford just cut the price of its Mustang Mach-E, too, plus it cut back production of its electric pickup. And General Motors is thinking about bringing back plug-in hybrids, arguably a step back from EVs.

An EV would work if the infrastructure was there.

Right, but it's not yet. So a PHEV is a better option for most people (for now).

True but the issue is that your government isn't doing anything about it. They could e.g. require every gas station to have an electric charger (Will be the case soon in Germany)

Okay. And until the government does something about it, a PHEV is an excellent choice.
