Electric cars have toxic batteries, are powered by electricity created by burning coal, and are at a higher price point than comparable gas engine cars. 

“Big bets are being made on going electric, but sales of electric cars had better pick up soon or those bets will turn sour… The car-buying public is not buying. They’re not buying electric cars in any number. They’re not buying the argument that electrics save the planet. Wouldn’t it be nice if the government just got out of the way and let us buy the cars we want to buy?” —Varney & Co.
