"Have you heard of this one? Sounds too good to be true." It is. It only has that range at low speeds. At 68 mph, its range is only a fraction of the 125 miles. Here is a run down on such vehicles. en.wikipedia.org To utilize such vehicles here, we need to have a city class car. One that doesn't have all of the safety standards and is restricted to, say, 35 mph continuous. Eliminating the safety requirements, except for seat belts, would cut the mass significantly and make the vehicle very fuel efficient. However, you have a glorified golf cart. But that might be ok for in town use.
