Electric cars. And I will make a case below for why this is the closest to reality, best for the environment, and the most affordable technology.
*
First of all, electric cars are available RIGHT NOW. Look at the links on this page, you can buy a freeway-capable EV for as little as $5000:

*
Also on the above page, you can read about how much cheaper (1 cent per mile) electric is than gasoline (at least 10 cents/mile.) No other alt-fuel option can beat this operating cost.
*
There are also exciting new-tech electric cars available this year, like the Phoenix:
*

*
This car solves all the problems: it gets up to 250 miles/charge, goes 95mph with 5 passengers plus cargo, charges in only TEN MINUTES, and has a battery pack that lasts over 250,000 miles.
*
These cars are best for the environment because they emit nothing from the tailpipe. It's true that power plants emit pollution, but the amount of overall pollution is only a fraction of what gasoline cars produce. (Due to the better efficiency of power generation, energy delivery, and utilization by the EV. Plus the fact that much electricity is now made from clean sources.) Charging your EV from solar panels on your garage would make it a true zero-emissions vehicle with an operating cost close to zero as well.
