A revolutionary breakthrough in energy storage. Electric only cars can't store enough juice for most American's uses. They're 'city commuters' only, and if you're that urban, you're probably using mass transit anyway. Right now the most portable and efficient way to store energy in a moving vehicle uses internal combustion of a flammable fluid.
It's all about energy density. The energy density of a battery is far lower on a pound for pound basis when compared to a tank of gasoline.
