How about this? We could put a small APU in the hatch. This one is only 2 x 1 x 1 ft (and still overkill):

There'd be plenty of room for a few gallons of jet A or maybe kerosene back there too. If we can trick the car to run while charging, we could make a plug-in serial hybrid with 250+ miles of range.  I'm pretty sure turbines are considerably more efficient that ICEs for constant RPM applications. I think I remember reading somewhere about people putting kerosene space heaters in their EVs in extreme northern climes, so why not this?:)
