It's an interesting idea, but the massive problem I see with that is that during peak traffic periods, everyone is going to be drawing power from the grid at the same time. At least batteries can be charged during off peak hours. Imagine the headaches that brownouts would cause. Of course that's only with widespread implementation, but you'd need wide-spread implementation to justify the infrastructure.
