Batteries are more toxic than gasoline. And less efficient. Aside from the fact that we don't even use them for wind and solar power stations.

A battery is made once, and making it environmental cost, but it doesnāt keep polluting every mile you drive. Over its life, it actually prevents more pollution than it caused to build.
