If you can't afford a tesla (like me) the Chevy volt is a cheaper alternative. We have had our volt about 9 months and love it, it doesn't have the electric range of the tesla (about 45 miles on a charge) but has a gas engine backup when your charge runs out. We've got gas 3 times in 9 months (we use the volt for short trips mostly)

If you want economy, you have to pay for it.
