Default What does GM have to say?

Who Ignored the Facts About the Electric Car? By Dave Barthmuss GM Communications

The film EV Confidential: Who Killed the Electric Car? showcased the intense passion for GM's out-of-production EV1 electric vehicle. I understand why. It was great technology for its day, a great concept and a great car. GM was and is proud to have brought the electric vehicle concept as far as it did and further than any other electric vehicle project attempted by any other automaker around the globe. Sadly, despite the substantial investment of money and the enthusiastic fervor of a relatively small number of EV1 drivers - including the filmmaker - the EV1 proved far from a viable commercial success.

I just stumbled upon this site through an ad on yahoo. I am not siding with GM. However, I think it is always important to hear both sides of a story.
