I feel like this is one area that requires a less extreme approach. It feels silly to forego batteries completely, but equally silly to put 100kW of batteries in a car. Most car trips for most people are going to be well under 50 miles.

I have a BMW 330e with 12kWh battery (~20 miles range), mostly drive locally in the city, and the car reports ~55% of driving is electric for the last two months. Occasional longer trips make up the vast majority of non-electric driving.

Exactly. 10 electric cars with 20 mile pure-electric range will have a larger impact than 1 electric car with 200 miles.
