The government already has a work-around solution to that limitation.
As the government closes off more large tracts of land to habitation and makes it more and more difficult to live in the country and small towns, the population will increasingly be concentrated into cities.
In an urban setting there is less need for private cars and less need for cars with long range capabilities.
So gradually the impact of the limited range of electric vehicles will be mitigated by stuffing us into bird coops stacked on top of each other.
Country living will become a perk reserved for politicians and other wealthy and well connected elites.
Self-driving cars will soon make it practical for the middle class to live 2 hours away from their jobs in the filthy cities. There already is an exodus out of the cities occurring, mostly white Americans. Because city governments always set up Ponzi style retirement programs, they are now scrambling to import people from third world countries to keep their Ponzi schemes going a little longer. In the northeast a substantial and growing percentage of all tax revenue goes straight to government retirees, many of them now receiving their tax loot far away in Florida. Economically that is unsustainable. The old cities are going bankrupt.
