| Comment | Please don't weaken the ZEV mandate. Several EV car
companies are working on pure electric vehicles and
will be able to comply. GM will be able to produce
the VOLT by 2010. Several other well-known manufacturers
have EVs in the pipeline.
According to your paper battery tech for autos is not
yet available. This is not so. The new Lithion (Li-Ion)
batteries are powerful and safe and battery companies
are ramping up production.
If small private companies can meet the mandate, then so too,
can the large corporations.
Here are a few URLs proving that EVs are viable now:
