Answer 4

Answer 5

anywhere from 40-120 miles per charge

Answer 6

It depends on the type of car and how many hills you go over. But between 35-50. It really matters what kind of eletric car.

Answer 7

That depends which EV, what the battery size is, what the top speed is, what the terrain is like, etc. etc.  Here are a few examples of upcoming EVs and plug-in hybrids:

Available in California in October 2008, the Aptera typ-1e will cost about $27,000 with a top speed of 95 mph and range of 120 miles per charge.

Soon thereafter Aptera will introduce the typ-1h, a plug-in hybrid version of the typ-1e with a 40-60 mile range on purely electrical energy, and a range of over 600 miles total when in electric/gas hybrid mode, for around $30,000.  On a 120 mile trip, the typ-1h will get 300 miles per gallon.  The shorter the trip, the higher the efficiency.
