Re: Telsa vs Volt; expectations
Uh...not all EVs were smashed. Just the ones from GM. Rav4 EVs exist (darelldd.com). As do some Ford Rangers. Sorry but GM had the biggest say in killing the electric car. apparently toyota/ford/honda, etc. wanted to and did smash some, but a few escaped into the wild as sold vehicles and still run today, putting on over 100,000 "gas-free" miles. The only EV1 from GM that still exists is in a museum...not alot of miles being put on that one.
also check out ev1.org.
This is the saddest picture of our time:
'04 Seaside Pearl #7. Fumoto oil drain, mudflaps, rear bumper scuff protector & rear warn system, compass mirror, EV mode button, 8" subwoofer in right rear cubby & 6" subs under seats, power lumbar in the front seats, Coastaletech hitch w/ Aspen bike/snowboard rack. iPod2car, 2 amps, Alpine component speakers, and DVD video, solid 47 MPG @ 70000 miles.
