I can't imagine my French road trips would be viable in an electric car. Maybe in the distant future if battery technology and charging infrastructure improves massively. At the moment your journey would revolve around planning your route from one charger to the next and being prepared to sit and wait for an available charger and waiting again for it to charge ( if the charger is working ).
My Audi A6 will on the other hand do over 600 miles on a tank of diesel and return over 45 mpg. So two fill ups taking 10 minutes and you're on your way. As for the environment it's way better than an EV being charged at a service station via a massive diesel generator which is the case at the moment !
