Besides someone eventually posting the Tesla motors one. I really do not care for sports car looks myself, hell I barely care about car looks.
I do know people can purchase a hybrid right now that is gas and electric. Strip out the stupid ass factory installed batteries (most of which require special plugs and shit). Toss in some of the newer lithium's that one can special order. From there you can charge your shit off of any standard plug. You also should average at bare minimum over 100 MPG in it- assuming you start with say one of the hybrid SUV's or other large cars, better mileage would be obtained from smaller cars. Plus you would have a full electric range of roughly 60-70 miles on electric only at street speeds (55mph and under) again on large vehicles, higher on smaller ones.
To me it does not matter if you believe in the whole climate change shit or not. Nor if you think peak oil is real or not. I like efficiency as well as not supporting other countries that really do not like us.
