There are just too many engineering
problems encountered to feasibly
attain the goals set by politicians.
The maximum effient battery setup
will only provide 100 miles of driving
before need to recharge. A recharge
takes about four hours. The infra
structure to accommodate the market
needs is just not there at this time.

electric cord long enough. :-)
