As a small child, I had a track set with a car that ran on electricity. The “charger” looked like a fuel pump.
I could play with my car for about twenty minutes, but it seemed the charging time took longer than the play time. When charging the “vehicle,” I could sit for about thirty minutes pressing down a button, or place a large can of vegetables on top of it.
This toy sucked. So does the “Volt.”
Screw you, progressive bastards.

You must be in your mid 40's, I had the same Hot Wheels cars too, they were called "Sizzlers." They were not too bad, given the limitations. Still, point taken.
