I don't think it's that far away, bluebandit.
Vectrix have been displaying a 'superbike' with 120+mph top speed (but limited range), and ZERO have a very capable offroader, and soon to be showing a road legal version with 70+mph top speed, performance on a par with a 250 enduro, and 150 mile range.
Still a way to go, obviously, but it won't take long. The biggest obstacle, as with any new technology, will be price.
