uum wrong 0-60 in 4.5 seconds is not slow, but yeah people think they need a range of 300 miles , but on an average day 30 would probably do it. long trips then yes would need more range but they ( electric) have speed and torque
watch the movie

I believe one day the internal combustion engine will be absolete, but not in my lifetime. The power and sounds these engines make feeds something inside us. We dont know what it is, we just know we like it. If you have ever been to a nascar event and they say "gentlemen start your engines" and your caught up in the moment, you will get chills at the roar of the thunder. WHY we don't know, but we LIKE it, WANT it. We have to be able to feel and hear that power. We are actually addicts, rarely are we satisfied, we always want more. IN otherwords, I'll pass on the electric vehicles for now anyway

I'll take one, most will do a 100 mile range and be quick about it too. Almost no engine up keep, cost me what it takes to charge overnight (what, 2 bucks a day?). Save the gas for my quads and a sunday driver hot rod mobile.

x2 shade, your books a little dusty, lol j/k
