Kind of smug with your EV there, lol. It's really not that clear. The average American driving a 4 cylinder gasoline car 20,000 miles per year and getting 35 mpg with $2.25 gasoline would spend $1,285 per year on fuel. That 4 cylinder likely costs over $10,000 less than your plug-in hybrid, requires no $5,000 solar panels, and can reliably go beyond 100 miles in a day. If you are to go further, you will be burning fuel as well, or plugging into a power supply that likely emits green house gases. This is not to mention the problem of Lithium supply:

The cost of batteries will go up astronomically and smother the electric car in its crib.
The hydrogen fuel cell is a far more likely replacement. Or perhaps the ethanol fuel cell?
