All cars have limitations. My car for instance has traction issues. Mercedes makes a similar car with no traction issues (AWD) but it has a crap nav system I can't put up with.

To your point, not everyone cares about range. I can't remember when I have driven 200 miles on one day. It's not something I do. So one could argue why buy a fossil fuel car with epic throttle lag, when you can buy an electric car with no throttle lag.
