I didn't read that whole article because I have the attention span of a microwaved pickle. BUT I hope that people don't buy this car because it is saving the environment or conserving precious natural resources (petroleum). What do we do burn to make electricity? Oh, that's right - oil. Oil burning power plants pollute.

The exception may be that if the owner is charging it in an area whose electricity is supplied by hydroelectric plants.

I think this is why the electric car wave never went anywhere. Because people eventually figured it out.

If it is being sold as a pure sports car that performs well because it has a billion lbft of torque available instantly, that's a different story. An expensive different story.
