  • In 10years time, hopefully, all we'll be able to buy is Hybrids or Electric.

    It'll be like a snowball, once it gets moving it'll gain lots of momentum and all the companies will get on board...hopefully!

  • i like how ford pretends they are doing something. and then at the end, "i'm sure ford will not put these into anyone's hands until the people are willing and ready to drive them"

    it's like a slap in the face. you're too stupid to have this car, you're not ready yet.

see all

  • Boy that's a ugly mule and why can the Tesla S get 300 miles and go much faster than any of the other cars I'm seeing?

  • Germans have been wrong before. I owned 2 VW's! Both were pieces of shit!!

  • How Ford can compare with Japan, German, EU, Korean, China.., Cars Producer? Ford need to build more natural gas, hybrids electric cars for America!!??

  • The head of VW said "if all the car companies made hybrids, they would all go out of business"

  • because it's electric it's unsafe

    can you provide a link? I havent heard of people with heart pace makers having trouble walking around these cars.

    woopsy doo if its heavier. we can make better tires and stabilizers like we have always been.

    wouldn't science proof beat polotics?

    Something like this surely would burn comanies.

    What electric car has failed to meat safty tests?

  • reporter is a douche

  • Make the 2012 Focus a BEV and I would ditch my loyalty to the Honda brand in a heartbeat!

  • What a bad reporter! I bet he's better at NYT... cause on TV, he's bad!

  • @paulkurianth778 (contd)

    The problem is now, so as not to get the big boys [oil] after them, they are only introducing these small cars with big limitations on them. Also EVERY Ecar has a governor on it. The governor limits the range and speed. Most states have written this into law, that they don't want electric cars to go above certain speeds. They have written it as "because it's electric it's unsafe" right into the laws. pisses me off.
