Without a major breakthrough in battery technologies, fully electric vehicles that are as convenient as ICE-based cars—meaning that they can travel 500 kilometers (312 miles) on a single charge and can recharge in a matter of minutes—are unlikely to be available for the mass market by 2020. Industry Dynamics.
The breakthrough could revolutionize electric car battery technology and pave the way for ultra-fast charging electric vehicles in as little as two years. The tango (commutercars) says they only need 50 million to become profitable. To recharge 20 kilowatt-hours of capacity in 5 minutes requires 240 kilowatts of electricity.

early technology adopters and relatively affluent urban consumers interested in a “green” commutercar). Initial consumer experiences with PEVs—their real-world driving range, cost, safety, reliability, and ease of recharging and resale—will exert a significant influence over mainstream consumers’ perceptions of PEVs.
A hybrid vehicle runs on gasoline plus a little amount of electricity; the battery powers the car for a few miles and then recharges as it slows down or descends. Ford is investing $22 billion in battery electric vehicles through 2025 and wants to be carbon neutral by 2050, but hybrids with gas engines will continue to play a role.
The customer will only pay a monthly fee about $240 (US Dollars) which includes a full maintenance service agreement; carbon offset payments and in some countries even all electricity used, and insurance. Today we could be using lead-acid EVs, lead-carbon-acid EVs, or nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion hybrids.
