An interesting news snippet here concerning A123 Systems (an American company) and a proposed Li-ion battery that would give electric cars a 300 mile range.
I am sceptical (and a realist). A 300 mile range is still not the same as what you get from a petrol or diesel vehicle, so no point pretending it is.
An 8 hour charge (probably more with one of these super-batteries) is a major stumbling block.
And they won’t be available for 5-10 years.
