Electric Dsm

[john]

The biggest issue right now in the persuit of the electric vehicle is the battery. Nobody wants to puchase a car with a $2000 battery pack and have it go out right away. Companies are throwing a lot of money at this as they are going to have to have a hell of a warranty to persuade customers.

I would argue against the safety holding them back as they have made hybrids since 2000 without any safety issues.

I personally will trust an import manufacturer when they bring out an all electric car (honda and toyota) as they have been at the drawing board for a bit longer and have success with their hybrids.
