Well, Matt, the Prius outsells the Honda and Toyota Hybrids because it gets the best gas mileage. If people are looking in that market segment, they want the best bang for their buck.

And here’s another proposal in Finland, this time with Toyota Corollas. Sounds a wee hippy hopey, but you never know…http://springwise.com/weekly/2008-06-05.htm#sahkoautot

It’s all too easy to throw up a website saying you’re going to make awesome electric vehicles, but it’s all smoke and mirrors until you’ve passed the crash tests.

Agreed Jon. Well AMP seems to be starting on that path, as they’re aiming to do other Saturn models as well. Hmm, maybe you’re on to something Jon. Any entrepreneurs listening? Or perhaps the man behind this electric biodiesel Hummer? http://twurl.nl/8tcqdr

I like the idea that it is based on an everyday car. What would be nice is to be able to run my present car into a company that would retro fit all electric gear. That would be an instant save for the planet. No need to scrap what was oil and start a new with electric just use a conversion kit.

Too bad its going to fail. Noone is going to pay 50,000 for car that looks exactly like a 26,000 car. People aren’t humble like that.
Why else does the Prius widely outsell the Civic and the Camry hybrids?

Most people can’t afford that. Its a good sign that there’s more competition to bring prices down. I’ve converted my car which did about 25mpg to run HHO gas and get about 60mpg. Things are changing and its about time!

Once a car-lover and mechanic like my self started looking at these new fangled electric cars, I am in love. No more fluids! No more transmissions!! bye bye air filters!! No more fixing grandma’s + wife’s cars to save a buck and lose a weekend!!!!! These units will make internal combustion look like medieval times!!!
HIT THE MARKET ALREADY!! I AM SAVING ALL MY PENNIES TO BUY YOU!!! Of course, all of our electrical infrastructure is to be sold to big oil before this can happen. How else can the ‘free’ market be controlled. Damn the stonecutters.
