If its sold over here, then companies will buy it for the tax breaks! Think of running a fleet of 10 cars, even if you spend £20K each, thats £200K if you have 10 of them then easilly a fortune on top for petrol, tax etc. This way employers wont need to spend fotunes on petrol/diesel.
160mile on the entry level model, which is very good for a sales man around a smallish region.
Yeah but if Boris has his way all cars will have to pay congestion charge, which is right in my opinion. Just because they are not polluting doesnt mean they arent adding to the congestion.

Yes but a lower rate of congestion road tax to help, maybe half price. if you have 10 cars being charged £8 per day £80 a day x 5 days thats £400 a week. reduce that to half and youve instantly £200 better off. They are still contributing to congestion but they arnt sitting there pouring out polluting.
Youd still need to plant some wind farms and build some trees to offset the electricity production.
Personally Im still going with Fuel Cell technology as the next big thing.
