An infrastructure must be created for this. It will be paid for by everyone. Its cost MUST be factored into the cost of running an electric car. The buyer must consider the cost of replacing the batteries.

The unpleasant truth is that there is much more energy available in gasoline, at a lower cost than from electricity.

Electricity must be generated. That costs money. It must be stored in non-renewable batteries.

Here is a map of Tesla supercharger stations where Tesla drivers can 'fill-up' in about an hour for FREE!

"The unpleasant truth is that there is much more energy available in gasoline, at a lower cost than from electricity."

The electricity required for a Tesla per mile is 177 watt-hours or less than 2 cents. At $3.00 a gallon, the car would have to get 150 mpg to be equivalent.
