That statement is very vague. I disagree with that. We have the technology to move a car over 350 miles on a charge. We also have a manufacturer that released an electric car that could go over 100 miles over a decade ago and another manufacturer that has a car that can go 244 miles on a charge that was released 4 years ago. Same company producing a vehicle that holds 7 people with space both in the usual rear area as well as the front where the engine usually would be that can go a similar distance, and also sedan that can go 300 miles.

You'll need to define your core problem a little better as you seem to be missing out on what battery technology currently exists, lead-acid isn't the only battery that has seen an electric car.
