When electric cars are developed, the operating costs are going to be compelling for households with two or more vehicles and businesses that operate fleets of cars locally. Even with $3 gasoline, electric vehicles are going to be much cheaper to operate per mile. The obstacle will be the initial cost of purchase but volume should bring that down. In the hilly area where I live, I can foresee a lot of regenerative braking on descents, instead of wearing out my rotors and pads.
