For the slow-to-stop urban traffic the electric cars have an upper hand over the internal combustion types in terms of efficiency.
Once we go to highways the advantage decreases and if we add the refueling/recharging they still have a long way to go.
Another aspect I seldom see anyone talking about is the battery replacement and recycling. Any serious study about it? How about all the Lithium and other materials needed for all the fleet they are talking about.
I do not doubt one day electric cars will be as ubiquitous as gas types and even surpass them.
It would be actually be very interesting to see a Jeep with four electric motors (one per wheel) instead of the cumbersome and heavy transmission system we use today. However, it will take several more years to see one.
Bets? Maybe 10 to 15?
