Is that so clean to produce electricity, especially in China (serious amount of coal power plants)?

Today, and for still a long time, oil we be needed. Because it's very cheap, storable and has multiple uses.

What happens when there are so many electric car''s and more electricity needs to be produced and is being used...

Electric cars need to have noise to them... they are a danger at how quiet they are.
It's possible. With light weight, graphene super-capacitors, you could recharge your car in 30 seconds. Some batteries will be needed but, most of the work would be done with super capacitors (with a lifespan of a million 100% DOD cycles).

Im sure the electricity is not as big deal , $3.48 cost to charge car for 100 miles, if you make 1000 miles per month you will pay 348 dollars .
noise its not really a problem , you can attach the speaker outside and make your V16 noise to Fiat Panda ,

It's the noise for when you can't see the car... at least you can hear them...

Electric cars are not sustainable. The batteries are made by graphite cobalt and lithium and there is just not enough of it. Not to mention the devastation mining those elements causes.
