[QUOTE="poopgiggle, post: 1439689, member: 6406"] Electric cars make sense RIGHT NOW if you're commuting (or delivering stuff, or whatever) in an urban environment, because you can charge overnight/while-at-work/whatever. I know people who live in Chicago who rely on public transportation day-to-day and rent a car if they need to leave the city. I can see a similar system working with electric cars instead of public transport; I wouldn't force anyone to do that, but people may choose to do it themselves just to save on fuel and maintenance. I don't think that electrifying the interstate system would really be practical, but then I'm not an electrical engineer (though I often have to pretend to know what they're talking about at conferences).
