Not really,the problems with electric cars are range and recharge times,there have been a few that could suit people who only travel a small distance in a day,but that doesnt really suit most people's driving habits. The recharge times are horrible too I think the best I've heard has still been in teh range of several hours VS. just gassing your car up and going. Hydrogen is my pick as we lose nothing and could retrofit pretty much any car to use it for a comparatively small price.
