Somebody needs to explain this to me,because a lot of times if i go down south,we switch drivers while the other one sleeps.I don't see how you can do this with these electric cars.

The tesla comes with an adaptor, you can plug it in to an outlet. Also, they're looking into having charging stations placed around the country.

The Volt, I'm pretty sure, has a backup engine.
