cars (although they are way expensive) that last like
2 hours, after a full charge! In my opinion, they
might ought to make it last longer before working on a
better power source. Batteries are a lot better than
gas, and with the technology so expensive and so
limited, I'd say the VAST majority are still using
gas, which is expensive and polluting. Seems like
they're moving ahead too fast.
