There are many more ICE vehicles getting great MPG, plus you get a real car you can take on a real drive. An electric is a joke except for SHORT commuting ONLY. Recharging will never make it viable, they need to design standardized battery packs that can be swapped in place of charging.

Hydrogen fuel cells will be the future, IMO.

I had an electric 1 seater, the range values are usually double what you actually get, and that is when the batteries are new. The battery warranty you mention sounds too good to be true. I would investigate that.
