I originally posted this documentary several years ago when the issue was global warming and smog. Now that gas prices have spiked and I just paid $45.00 to fill my 1999 Saturn SL, it’s time to re-visit the marketing blunders that both domestic and Japanese auto makers made back in the 90’s concerning electric vehicles. Thanks to the political influence of the Oil Industry lobbyists, there is now no choice between electric or hybrid; hybrid uses gas. A no-brainer for auto manufacturers who have a symbiotic relationship with the Oil Industry!
