Google the mining process for those rare earth ingredients going into the batteries. Polluted mining processes and child labor. Plus the carbon footprint to build them! Ever thought of how they are going to dispose of the batteries????

Environment aside, I was reading about an electric supercar that runs circles around any gas vehicles made. Batteries need to be recharge after 2 hours of hard use. Took 12 hours to recharge!
