Even if he is right, without taking this massive step, EV's would never be adopted. We don't have time for "never". We don't have time for Fuel Cells, making hydrogen from electrolysis using guess what? electricity. Nope, hydrogen is oils pipe dream. I drive exactly 35 miles back and forth to work, even adding in 10 miles for errands, I still have no issue with a 75-100 mile/day limit. I can wait the 6-8 hours for the car to recharge. I see no problem here... And, we are going to have to make some comromises, there simply isn't enough to go around without compromise.
