Sounds like a bargain to me. NOT.
There is no economic advantage to a battery-powered EV except in a very narrow niche application. A hybrid using electric traction power, with the energy supplied by an internal-combustion engine driving an on-board generator, is a much better solution on an interim basis, until hydrogen fuel cells can substitute for the on-board generation system.
But the hydrogen infrastructure would have to be developed FIRST before that program could be itself economically feasible. That includes vastly expanding the electric power generation capacity, using nuclear energy as the primary source. Nuclear power generation has gotten a very bad rap because of Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Fukushima disasters, using light-water uranium reactors. It is no longer necessary to rely on that technology, developed over sixty years ago, with its attendant problems and clumsy procedures for control (either flatout or all off). Small modular reactors have been designed and are ready for widespread adoption, with none of the problems of the big uranium LWRs, like runaway reactions, radioactivity release, or huge quantities of “spent” radioactive waste.

These reactors can power an industrial complex or a small remote location WITHOUT being tied into a wider electrical grid, and thus making the transmission of electrical power from point of generation to point of consumption much shorter, without the losses on the grid which only transmit about 38% of the power generated to the ultimate consumer, because of resistance over long transmission lines, which can stretch hundreds or thousands of miles. The chances of a total blackout, with many much smaller grids rather than one massive grid, are far less, and also protect against the effect of an EMP event, either by sabotage or open warfare.
Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Fukushima disasters,

As a matter of fact, the nuclear energy is the safest of them all! NOBODY died in Fukushima or Three Mile Island. Less than 50 died in Chernobyl.
Lot more people died falling from roofs installing and fixing solar cells than all the victims of Nuclear power.
But falling from roof is known entity, nuclear radiation is unknown entity and most people are (unjustly) scared of it.
Sort of like many people are afraid of flying, despite that flying is the safes method of transportation known to man.
