Electric vehicles are wonderful for the capabilities they have. The electric car can never take the place of a gasoline powered vehicle until it has the range and convenience of what we have now. Perhaps a small nuclear reactor would give an electrically driven vehicle the ability to travel long distances without having to stop every 50 miles to recharge the battery. My concept of vehicle range is one that travels far enough and long enough so that I must stop to empty my bladder before the vehicle runs out of power. ^_^
