Thy are still ridiculously expensive. The 2 electric cars tested on Top Gear recently were Ford Focus segment cars costing well over £30,000 each! To add insult to injury, like mobile phones, the batteries will hold less charge over time and will need replacing at certain intervals - an expensive prospect costing 30-40% of the original price of the car.
