Question for you...

Where does the electricity come from that charges an electric car?
Keep in mind that people that leased prototype EV1s from GM were not allowed to purchase them when they ended the program in 2003. Many people did in fact want to purchase the cars. What specifically do you mean when you claim they sucked? Do you have numbers for the cars range, or max acceleration?

Also, keep in mind the advantage to the electric car isn't necessarily reducing oil consumption but cleaning up the air quality in cities.
