Never going to work, unless charging the battery takes no more time than re-fueling the car.

I had a good talk with the woman re. this same very topic. I’m all for alternative sources of energy as I believe, in the long run, it will be needed especially if we ever do decide to make an off-planet expedition.

Her grandfather is an avid pipe-liner, and has been for 40+ years - started when he was 16 years old in Northern Ohio. Here is the problem: If you want to go full electric, you have to match or exceed the convenience of the internal combustion engine.

Those electric cars do not charge as fast as the 2 minutes it takes to fill up a car at a gas station, and no amount of this “new” and “electric” crap they force down everyone’s throats is going to account for the convenience of gas.

However, if they wanted to reduce pollution and increase performance, they could simply convert all of the new cars to diesel, as it is cleaner more efficient.
