The recharges and station availability are more the problem. The Tesla Model S has longer range than a good number of popular gas cars including several Ford Mustang models.

The solutions already exist if we find a way to deploy them. We even have the technology today to recharge your car wirelessly while it's driving.

With wireless induction charging, you won't have to stop driving until it's time to rotate your tires or use the restroom.
