Original sentence: BEVs reduce dependence on petroleum, thus enhancing national security, and mitigate global warming by alleviating the greenhouse effect.Historically, BEVs and PHEVs have had issues with high battery costs, limited travel distance between battery recharging, charging time, and battery lifespan, which have limited widespread adoption.Ongoing battery technology advancements have addressed many of these problems; many models have recently been prototyped, and a handful of future production models have been announced
Edited sentence: A handful of future production models have been announced, although many more have been prototyped.BEVs reduce dependence on petroleum, mitigate global warming by alleviating the greenhouse effect, and enhance national security.Ongoing battery technology advancements have addressed many problems with high costs, limited travel distance between battery recharging, charging time, and battery lifespan.Those drawbacks have historically and are still currently being blamed for the limited adoption of the BEVs and PHEVs
