An EV1 Experience 10 Sold one

I wonder if someone sneaked one away into hiding somewhere? I hope so, as this car was simply irredible for the time. So futuristic.

yeah that would be great to see in say 2035. some guy checks out the old barn on the land he just bought and one of these is under a tarp like they usually find 50s cars now.

You never should have given it back, though I guess you didn't realize they were going to take them all out to the desert and crush them. I wish somebody had just driven away.. hiding it in a Canadian garage where it could be dissected and replicated, like alien technology at Area 51. ; )

You can convert any car you shoose to an electric nowadays.

[bredlo]

True, but the EV1 (according to the GM suits interviewed in "Who Killed" said there was about a billion dollars invested in this project.) That kind of R&D is now all wasted, and the mass-produced parts and process of how it was built would certainly be helpful today to other companies looking to build all-electric cars, don't you think?

[brianempson]

Yeah, that car would have been sweet to have as a first car. Haha, put some better batteries in it and get 300 mile range :o

WE WANT IT BACK!
