Best Answer

Electric cars have been invented due to the insight (and hope) that it may be an end to the world's dependence of fossil fuels.

There is no synthetic fuels we can use, all the fuels and synthetic oils that we use today are derivatives of fossil fuels.

Most plastics made today require fossil fuels.

Also with the sun being as plentiful as it is in some regions it may become cheaper and more practical to use the solar capabilites, especially since it is a resource that is not expected to burn out for thousands if not another million years.
