Had stupid Americans voted for Ralph Nader in 1996 and 2000 like they should have, we would all drive electric cars right now powered by solar and wind power, even if that meant carpooling (i.e. sharing cars), and the economy would be healthy and strong, because Nader would have banned the production and import of the obsolete gas-powered car. We'd save COLOSSAL amounts of money that is now wasted on wars for oil, damage due to manmade climate change, and banker bailouts.

@mphello

Had Americans elected Ralph Nader for President there would be no America today. Nader may have had some good ideas on isolated issues, but he would have been as inept as Obama and Bush combined.

@mosquiton001 Not useless. Electric vehicles convert 80-90% of their energy into pure motion. At best, an internal combustion engine is only 30% efficient; the rest is heat, noise & more pollution per mile than if you used the far more efficient energy extraction of a US coal power plant.  Point source pollution is also a much easier issue to deal with, than millions of individual tailpipes spewing burnt hydrocarbons and noxious gases. It is in our best interest to use domestic electricity.

I'm Norwegian, and I'm glad this company died!

They've certainly improved its appearance

In its first materialization it was uglier than an Allegro, and that's saying something

I designed this car's charging socket just before I retired - unless they've changed it since, of course

@mphello we wouldn't even have to carpool

@TheAutoChannel Bullshit. Nader would have led the country in the right direction. Of course, no SINGLE person alone can change all laws. You'd still need EVERY level of office filled with true leaders (Green party).

Yeah - riiiight. As if. There is no America today under Republicrats and Demopubs.

This is a very smart and sexy looking car but it's not what Think is shipping right now. Is this a new model for 2012 that is not shipping yet?

European Automobile Manufacturing Technology can supercede Japanese and American Technology. They are right now building highly advanced vehicles.
