Why?
1. The battery of an electric car costs can be up to $10k, when a regular car battery about $300.
2. Electric cars tend to be small and not very fast since electric car technology isn't very advanced.

It'll be a long time before electric car technology will make sense AND work just as well as normal cars

Yes, but if you think about it, 10k not even yearly can be a great discount of buying gas for 60 bucks once a week.

@Lam
You have to charge the car up when it runs out of juice
The battery is there to move the car when it is CHARGED
Which adds on the cost of the electric bill
And not all places, especially when you are traveling, have a place where you can charge your car
And spending $60 a weeek for 52 weeks (A year) = $3120 a year
And even if you spent $100, that would still only be $5200 a year.

3. The way energy is made is by the burning of fossil fuels anyway

4. These cars are heavier and thus less powerful and require more power to run

5. It takes up to a day to charge a car battery

6. The range is usually terrible

"Yes, but if you think about it, 10k not even yearly can be a great discount of buying gas for 60 bucks once a week."

52 weeks in a year

52 x 60 = $3120

Even if the battery lasted 2 or 3 years it would be a bad investment

7. The "performance" electricity cars don't make a very satisfying noise when you put your foot down

8. The increased weight from the batteries means that the handling isn't going to be very satisfying

"The Model S Signature model with a 85 kWh pack rated by EPA has a top speed of 125 mph (201 km/h) and accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds.[6] The Model S Signature Performance model has a top speed of 130 mph (210 km/h) and accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds, while the base 60 kW·h battery model has a top speed of 120 mph (190 km/h) and accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds."

I call BS nyan

"The Model S is offered with two battery packs: a base model with a 60 kW·h battery expected to deliver 230 miles (370 km) and a 85 kW·h battery expected to deliver 300 miles (480 km)"

That's not very far at all
