In late 2007, CAFE standards received their first overhaul in more than 30 years. On December 19, President Bush signed into law the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, which requires in part that automakers boost fleetwide gas mileage to 35 mpg by the year 2020. This requirement applies to all passenger automobiles, including "light trucks." Politicians had faced increased public pressure to raise CAFE standards; a July 2007 poll conducted in seven states revealed 84-90% in favor of legislating mandatory increases.

That's a pretty ignorant and accusing comment, let's not try to bring the war and politics into this and just agree that gas prices suck.

From a pure sports of view, electric cars got no problem having tons of torque which should make can make you accelerate like a bat out of hell (max torque all the time) along with crazy high RPMs. They just need to make a reliable tranny that can handle all that torque at once. Ti's the problem they ran into with the Tesla car.
