[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 922052, member: 12952"] [url=http://bottomline.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/01/03/9922196-so-far-battery-cars-coming-up-short]Bottom Line - So far, battery cars coming up short[/url] If the White House hopes to meet its ambitious goal of putting 1.5 million battery cars on the road by mid-decade it better hope that 2011 wasn’t a good indication of what Americans think of electric vehicles. Add them all up, hybrids, plug-ins and pure battery-electric vehicles, or BEVs, and they accounted for little more than 2% of the U.S. automotive market last year. Remove conventional gas-electric models, such as the Toyota Prius and Ford Fusion Hybrid, from the equation and more advanced battery vehicles generated barely 20,000 sales. [/QUOTE]
