The cost of recharging the vehicle is relatively cheap, no doubt. But, as the article notes, the infrastructure isn't there.

The greenies want their green cars, but no new power plants, no new high tension lines to carry the added electricity. We've already suffered brownouts in CA and the northeast without the added load. They want something for nothing, as usual.

For us, that would be a 30% increase in our electric bill. My gasoline bill for my truck is less than $100 per month and I don’t have to worry about $14,000 worth of batteries.

During the warm months here in Texas, it would also stress the grid.
