I rented a Ford Fusion Hybrid one time. It did get great gas mileage. My biggest surprise was while driving down the freeway and going on overpasses, the system would regenerate on the minuscule downhill.
For strictly battery powered cars, where is all of the spare grid power going to come from to charge them? And we will be able to build a new Rocky Mountains from the discarded batteries.
I keep a couple jerry cans full of gas in case of a hurricane. If I had rely on an electric vehicle to evacuate with thousands of other electric vehicles, where on earth could you plug that many cars in? The roads would be littered with discharged vehicles...
