I believe the current best you can do is about 200 miles of highway range in about 20 mins if the battery pack is in a low state of charge. The charging rate is a function of the state of charge of the battery pack.

Would definitely look at a hybrid for the next vehicle. Would need to balance additional cost against mileage. A few extra thousand to increase mileage from 30mpg to 50mpg would be worth it but maybe not if the increase was not as large.
Would love to go EV but range is an issue. The next vehicle will be used for long trips and I can't imagine sitting for 30 minutes or more waiting for a recharge. But, perhaps things will change by the time I need a new vehicle.
