Default Re: Who Killed the Electric Car?

Yep... It does seem that hybrids bridge the gap between "guzzling" and "true EV". But GM could have been the leader in EV cars and trucks by now, since they apparently had a 20 year head start.

On the bright side, the new 2007 Escalade gets even LOWER mileage, weighs 6000 pounds, and adds an additional 20 HP. Yippie!

Hope is like a candle held against the night.
