Not for me, not when you can get any of these without taxpayer subsudy:

Toyota Corolla, base price $18,300, tank cap. 13gal., mileage range 390 to 546, fill time five minutes or less.

Hyundai Elantra, base price $18,150, tank cap. 14 gal, mileage range 406 to 532, fill time five minute or less.

Honda Civic, base price $19,440, Tank cap. 12.4, mileage range 384 to 508, fill time 5 min. or less.

Compared to an all electric with a range of 215 mi. that takes 20 to 40 min to charge at a supercharger station or at a public charging station where it will take one hour per 22 miles of range! Yes a 35K price tag that becomes reasonable only after sucking tax dollars out of the public to subsidize a feel good toy for gaia worshipper.

Of course, none of the cars you listed will do 0-60 in less than six seconds either, eh?

The charge time is moot if you drive 150 miles or less per day. You just charge overnight. Most folks that own one will also have a gas vehicle for the occasional long trip.
