"So you are underestimating available power by > 6x "

Silly me. You can recharge it in 2 days then, or 12 hours with 480v 100A industrial service.

.....or, you can pump 15 gallons of gas in 5 minutes.

It really is silly to give serious consideration to electric cars, except under the most tailored of circumstances, isn't it?
