Battery technology has evolved a huge amount in the past 15 years. Due to politics and lack of automotive volume, EV builders just don't have ready access to an affordable battery capable of providing long range and long life.

I've thought of going to the dark side and lowering a smallblock Chevy into my Triumph, but I want to get off of using gasoline too badly. But the raw power of a V8 in a tiny little British car is something that commands my respect. After all, there's not many cheaper ways to get you down the 1/4 mile in under 11 seconds, while still getting over 20 mpg...
