Just want to add more info the the knowledge base.
There is a lot of misinformation out there due to the auto and oil industry. GM bought all the new battery technology. they even got rid of their car they made that worked too well. You need to see Who Killed The Electric Car

We used to convert full sized internal combustion cars to electric for $5000.00 dollars and they would go 70 to 90 miles at 55mph on golf cart batteries! Nothing like they have now. It cost about 1 to 2 cents per mile. These were cars that were never meant to be electric in the first place. This is first hand experience, electric cars work and they are not expensive. They just need to have even footing in the auto industry.

We eventually had cars that could go 100mph!
Here is a video of one of our cars

Ford told the dealers in AZ no to help any schools make any more cars because we were making them look bad.
Here are two companies that are developing modern electric cars and the price could drop if they were mass produced. This would make the price of the vehicles comparable to current vehicles.
AC Propulsion

Tesla Motors

Remember these are not mass produced in any numbers even approaching a fraction of any car built by the big auto companies. If they were the price would be much much less. They new electric car companies also picked a battery platform that the auto industry could not buy out. Lithium Polymer like they use in portable electronic devices, like cell phones and lap tops.

Hope this info helps out the argument. Electric cars are more than capable to replace 90 percent of all driving needs and at a cost that is no more than traditional automobiles.
