At present that may be the case with cars but you still have HGV haulage and plant and machinery. The energy demands there are huge and present battery technology just can't handle it.

There is a possible alternative though, at present available as a one cylinder engine and being marketed. It may be possible with further R&D to produce 4,6,8 &12 cylinder engines, who knows?
