erica_ann's Journal: New EV-01: After Who Killed the Electric Car?

Reading some news, I came across the title of an article dated August 28th, 2008. Nissan Moves Into High Gear on Hybrids on Globe Auto Then I saw the picture of the EV-01. Woah. Talk about Flashbacks. The EV-01 sounds so familiar! Now I know where I have heard it from. Years ago when they KILLED the electric car!. Yes, this route has already been gone down. This is nothing new. Years ago, the EV-01 was "so" perfect of a car, Oil tycoons and people with stock invested, car companies too - were not making enough money from the car. Less oil changes, no gas... wheres the profit? And now that we are in a bind with gas... all of the sudden this is something that could "help" us? Hello!!!! If following through LAST time instead of KILLING OFF the Electric car.. maybe we wouldn't be in an almost-$4-a-gallon problem now?? I invite everyone to watch the movie or at least get a little education on what happened last time this idea began. Let's keep this from happening again!
