By comparing to the Camry you're kind of supporting their point, though. The Camry is a mid-size gas car (by length), and its top trim is the same price as a bottom trim Model 3, a compact electric car. The accurate comparison would be to a Corolla, a compact ICE car whose top trim is about $28k.
In other words, current electric vehicles are about 2 price classes above equivalently positioned gas cars, maybe 1.5 price classes if you consider TCO.
Is there a reason why you're valuing performance at zero? 7.6 seconds 0-60 for that Camray, 8.0 for the Corolla. Surely some fraction of consumers care about that.
A new v6 camry will do 0-60 in 5.8, and once it gets going as much hp as a model 3. But no, most customers do not care about performance[0] otherwise trucks, SUVs, CUVs, etc. wouldn't be dominating American car sales.
Actually performance is exactly why SUVs came to dominate -- they're classified as trucks under CAFE which allows them to have worse fuel economy. Which allows them to have bigger engines.
That advantage mostly fell to hybrids and full electrics, because now you can make a fast car that satisfies the rules, but by that point the ship had already sailed and now people don't feel safe in a sporty little thing next to the neighbor's hausfrauenpanzer so now people want it to be fast and big.
I'm pretty sure that the minority of consumers who care about performance is much bigger than the % who are buying electric cars today. There's a lot more to the car market than the most popular thing.
