ICE engines don't do that. Why would you expect electric to?When manufacturers reliably get 1000 miles plus of range, and charging times measured in minutes instead of hours, then might be a good time to have a closer look.
Buying into embryo technology that is developing in jerks (no puns please) rather than in a smooth progression seems daft.
Basically, the electric car will come of age when, under averse conditions, it will cover on one charge far more miles than a marathon driver could possibly do in one day.
