From the choices given, we can already eliminate choice A because it deviates to the topic of the claim. The rest of the choices are related. Although, we have to select the most reasonable. Among them, the answer is: B.There are not currently enough charging stations in the United States to support large numbers of electric vehicles.

Choices C and D are not up for a scientific argument; it's more of an aesthetic preference or one that is not backed with scientific reason. Choice B is the one that makes sense and encourages argument against the claim.
