Very interesting article about this flawed concept in Autocar this week
There's nothing wrong with the concept, we just need better batteries.
'Any' battery that needs charging, unless charged environmentally
friendlylyly simply moves the pollution / problem elsewhere .. hence
'flawed' ...
Until you can get fuel cells with sufficient capacity at a sensible
cost, and charge then at home with solar, wind or nuclear power, hybrid
and electric vehicles are really just a way of shifting pollution out of
cities. Carting all those heavy batteries around is never going to be a
sensible solution.
