Another factor that might limit some people's decision about buying an electric car is how often they typically have power blackouts due to weather (ice/wind storms, etc) or other factors. You get home on the last of your charge to find your house dark and lacking enough range to drive back into town. On the converse, if your EV was sitting at home with a full charge when the power dropped out, with an appropriate sized inverter you could use your EV as a backup generator for a period of time.
