Battery only electrics are oxymorons in the fight to avoid gasoline and emissions. They are , at best niche cars, that are appropriate for almost no one. Plug-in vehicles such as the 40 mile range Volt have the capacity to do what battery-only electrics have never had the capacity to accomplish - meet the private transporation needs of the avergage driver, and eliminate all need for gasoline as a liquid fuel. Unethical companies like the ZAP electric car company, and unreliable "historians" like
the implausible Chris Paine (movie maker) and assorted braindead environmentalists who seem to believe that
carbon free technology is always good, regardless of how crappy it may be (except, oddly, for nuclear power, which is the only significant producer of carbon free power on the planet) are the only ones who are pumping and shilling for battery-only electrics, proven to be flops during the 1910's, 1990's and, if they have their way, in the 2010's.
