Then of course people will get those nice, sky-high electric bills as a result. But as for not polluting, I have to take somewhat of an issue with that. The process of making a large battery, especially on a mass production scale, is very nasty for the planet. You have to mine and mix up very toxic chemicals to make batteries work. It is even more fun when you have to dispose of the battery.
Couple this with the fact that every battery loses the ability to hold a charge over time. A car that gets 100 miles of range on one charge when it is new might only get 50 or 10 miles on a single charge in a few years.
Understood. I just meant the actual driving of the car.
Battery production and disposal is a huge problem.
