What if that engine actually runs on moonshine booze? On a sidenote, some sugar/ethanol mills in my country were earning more profits from cogeneration burning the sugarcane leftovers as a boilers fuel than from ethanol.

When it comes to battery chemistry, both energy density and chemical stability should be regarded the same level of priorities in order to really render EVs and plug-in hybrids suitable to a larger amount of the public. Long-term durability is quite obvious to mention as a relevant matter for the average Joe to embrace the PHEV (or maybe EV depending on the operating conditions) bandwagon.
