You are thinking of a hybrid that has a gas engine to drive the alternator to charge the battery part. The battery and electric motor helps with acceleration and stop/go traffic, improving range tremendously. The gas motor helps with driving at speed and keeping the battery charged.
A pure electric car has no way to charge the battery other than regenerative braking.
