My utility company (Pacific Gas & Electric) claims 50% of my electric power is generated by renewable resources. Plus I can augment that at home with a renewable energy source of my choice. 100% of the fuel that my gasoline powered car uses is non-renewable, and I don't foresee that changing for the better in the car's lifetime. My common sense sez that despite the inefficiencies, all electric is the way to go.
