  • CNN was very irresponsible in making this report. As EVERYONE seems to do, they ignored the concept of *all* electric cars as relief, even salvation from oil dependency. instead they regurgitate GM's Volt propaganda.

  • Pumps in every station.....e85.....

    I believe the world should have concentrated on hybrids 30 years ago (on short term), and start to prepare for EVs ever since. However, now it is the time to concentrate on hybrids/flex after all, simply because the infrastructure for operating EVs en masse is not present (and the vast amount of energy /electricity/ needed for them is not even conceivable - never really was). I am for EVs; unfortunately the world is not prepared for them because 30 years were wasted in the Oil Glut.

  • solar stations are the future....

  • I am so sick and tired of hearing about that POS Chevy Volt, for a similiar priced vehicle from half a dozen other manufacturers whose cars don't catch on fire (OH sorry, experience a "Thermal Event")!! The Big Three American car companies suck and that's that!!!

  • um.... it's October 29 2009 what energy crisis are they talking about?

  • Cool. May not be able to aford or even find food in the future, but we can drive!

    Might want to start practicing for that day and stop eating now....

  • What I just can't understand is That the Ford Focus has a turbo deisel in Europe that gets over 56 mpg and just won the Green Car award in Great Britain, beating 23 other cars. But it wont get launched and be built in the U.S. until next summer of 09'. It actually in the competition got 62.7 mpg. Ford is bringing 6 European small cars to the U.S. in the next year or so,like the Sportka but this should of been years ago

  • Gm is crazy. They need to suck up their pride and have honda show them some formulas to get them in the right direction. GM should have been planning for this scenerio for a long time. Their fuckin greedy.

  • That is a possibility, but far harder than you think. The battery pack on most electric vehicles is close to 50% of the entire weight of the car. The Honda EV battery pack weighs 843 pounds, for instance. The real solution, albeit down the road, is to use nuclear to generate the electricity needed to split water to get hydrogen. The hydrogen is the battery (a means of energy storage, not an energy source like oil is).
