You have to wonder if GM has at least held a meeting to discuss bringing back the EV1. Didn't Wagoner say he thought it was a mistake to discontinue it? I mean, you've got the engineering done. You'll have to update it a bit for new batteries, but compared to designing from scratch, it would seem a quick route to "green" their image, leap ahead of the Japanese, and appear to be genuinely interested in pursuing consumers. You'd think the P.R. boost would be worth whatever it cost.

The design was futuristic-enough back then that it wouldn't look out of place on today's roads.

I wonder if they still have the body panel molds.
