The MSM tries to ignore the Electric Vehicle revolution, but the auto and truck magazines and other consumer magazines can't. Meanwhile coverage is exploding on teh Intertoobz. The century-old wonders of the ICE Age are coming to an inevitable and ultimately inglorious end.
As are car magazines themselves.

TEN Publishing Is Shuttering 19 Car Magazines
Automobile, Lowrider and Truck Trend will be discontinued, among others, according to a memo to MotorTrend Group staffers.
But while they last, we can look at how they are covering the transition to electric cars and other EVs, according to their estimations of the tastes and pocketbooks of their readers. And then, on other Tuesdays, we can look at the motorcycle and truck media, and the proliferating YouTube and other EV channels.
List of car magazines—Wikipedia
No, I'm not going to cover every magazine in this global list today, not least because it turns out to be radically incomplete for the US and UK.

So let's get this out of the way right now: We're not here to suggest that the internal-combustion engine is dead. Far from it. We attend Rotating Mass every day just like you. But neither should a good performance enthusiast ignore what is happening beyond the world of the holy grail of the four-stroke cycle.
This story is not about green posturing or carbon footprints. This is HOT ROD, and we're about performance, but it's time to acknowledge that electric cars have arrived and can perform. We intend to offer several very different examples of electric race cars for your perusal. Dismiss them if you like, but frankly, unless you can set the new world record for Pikes Peak, win the 24 Hours of Le Mans with a hybrid prototype, or run low-8s in the quarter-mile in a door-slammer, then perhaps it's worthwhile to at least know something about these electron-powered machines, because all of those mentioned achievements have already occurred. We're just going to scratch the surface of what's happening out there in the world of volts, amps, and watts.

It’s no sports car, but BMW’s all-electric i3 is quick as well as quirky about town, and it has some distinct advantages over gasoline-powered cars under the right circumstances.
Corvette Magazine
Nothing. There are one-off electric Corvettes, though.
