Joe,

Not bashing by any means, but curious. What do you do for heat in the winter time in an electric car? With internal combustion, there's practically limitless heat as a byproduct, but if your power source is electricity stored in batteries, then there's no (at least not significant) waste heat. Add to that the fact that electrical resistance heating isn't horribly efficient, and the effect that it would have on battery life,...?

As i said, just curious. That's been my biggest question about electric cars.
