I don't need an electric vehicle to go 70 or 101 mph. What I do need for it to do is operate without consumption of gasoline.
If my wife buys a Volt and her daily commute is 15-20 miles, and the Volt can be plugged in every night, how much gas will she use each month? The answer to this question will be a deciding factor on the purchase of a Volt. Some of the mpg ratings in that story were horrible.
