Two words have proved deadly for the mass-market electric car: range anxiety. Petrol or diesel cars can go for up to 1,000km on one tank but most battery-powered ones need recharging after 150-200km--unless you have $72,400 to spare for the extended-range version of Tesla's Model S. Political leaders such as Germany's Angela Merkel who unwisely set grand targets for getting electric cars on their roads (she proposed 1m by 2020) are now regretting it. Carmakers too. All sorts of industries are pumping money into making batteries more efficient and cheaper, but there are no breakthroughs round the corner.
