You'd make a fine automobile industry marketing exec., Jon.
Let us know when they hit 32,000 Apteras. That's how many Volts were sold since 2010. You need really deep pockets to survive on that kind of production.
I probably won't still be living, but the other members here will be interested.
Perhaps because like me, he wanted a more substantial car, and the opportunity to get a higher EV percentage. His other ride is a Yukon. Looks like his lifetime mileage might be 62 thus far.
Yeah, it's too bad that people can't apply the rule they use about flatscreen payoff etc. to a ground breaking product that's made in America to boot.
My guess is that EVs of various types will fill a small market segment, with serial plug-ins being the most viable. Now it's a matter of cost.
And, of course, watching to see what new technologies may do. It appears that we may be stalled in available battery technology for now, but there are a lot of things in the pipeline. One or more could emerge and change the whole landscape.
Nope, they'd turf him just like everybody else has. First time he got caught with his sockpuppeting act it would be game over.
"UPDATE -- July 8, 2007 -- I had to close this blog post to further comments and to remove the personal attacks between Jon and some other newsgroups readers. Before the interview, I made an agreement with Jon about the style of the interview and the way to handle it. Jon didn?t respect our agreement, posting comments under fake names. Jon?s authentic and fake comments are all posted from the same IP address,
72.199.251.224. I can now see that my trust in Jon was misplaced."
I've already told you what the problem with Apetra was, Ed. It had nothing to do with the technology and everything to do with bad management. That you or KiddingNoOne can't grasp this fact doesn't surprise me in the least.
We don't have wait to know what Gen 1 of the Chevy Volt is.
The Chevy Volt Gen 1 is way too heavy, is priced way too high (by GM's own admission) and it doesn't make economic sense to most Americans. The result: The Chevy Volt doesn't sell very well.
