The obvious problem with completely electric cars is range. And it's worse in cold weather. I looked at some electric cars before buying the Smart car and at a 24 mile one way drive to the office it was going to be iffy whether I could make it both ways in January in Wisconsin. If you live in a city with short commutes it's a great option.

Hydrogen power is the only real longterm solution. The most abundant element in the universe with zero emissions.
