Science Friday on the Volt and other green cars


The excellent Science Friday had a segment on green cars. There is an interview with a GM VP (Environment and Energy!?) about the Volt. She doesn't give a timeline on the availability of the car but mentions that it all depends on "battery development". Maybe they should rip them from the EXISTING and perfectly funtional Rav4EVs!

I keep getting this feeling that the volt, just like fuel cells, are PR stunts or FUD against hybrids and plug-ins.

I do want to believe GM but their record after the EV1 fiasco leaves much to be desired.
