The reasonable way is to buy a PHEV and use the fuel tank as range extender for occasional extended roadtrips or when chargers are unavailable. However that may or may not be desirable when it comes to regulatory concerns (taxes etc.).

But even so, these extra tanks and ICE engines contribute to the cost and weight of the vehicle when the objective for me is to minimize cost given that I don't drive more than 100mi/wk. I could do with with 100mi of total range or less without need for an ICE generator.

That's only because an electric car with an ICE generator trailer is in legal limbo.

PS: It must be a monstrosity of a generator, min. 50 KW, not the toys that some companies showed as investor bait. [1]
