I think e gas is basically Liquid methane
That would have a higher energy content than traditional gasoline. It will still be expensive to make, and will require tax breaks to be competitive head to head in the current market.
But the market is likely to change in the near future. e gas might prove to be the only solution.

Further, once economies of scale kick in, the price will come down some. No matter what, it will likely be better that electric as currently supplied.

To be clear, I am no expert on stoichiometry, chemistry or physics and never will be.
