There are right now no known battery technologies that will make battery powered vehicles feasible in the near future. And the government is funding battery research. Has been sense battery powered 2 way radios where used in combat. Anyone who served when the AN PRC 77 radio was the man pac radio knows how large and heavy those batteries were. It's in the interest of national security to make batteries last as long as possible and be a light as possible. Heck we were using Lithium batteries in the military in the 80s. And in the mid 90's nicads were the rage for the civilian sector. But knowing an engineer who works in battery technology what I'm being told right now NO NEW BATTERY TECHNOLOGY is on the horizon. And the military, Army, Marines and Navy, especially special ops what batteries to power communication devices for longer periods and with less weight. Right now there are working to meet requirements not with new batteries because there are none but by making the equipment use less power. So why on earth should the government pay even more to develop an electric car? I'm not saying it can't be done. I'm saying it can't be done right now.
