		<description>I was planning to get a new car this year, but gas prices got too ridiculous.  My next car will be electric for sure.  I&#039;ll probably have to wait until 2013-2015 though for the high demand and price for electrics to go down.



Check out this hitched-on $4000 range extender from ACpropulsion:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN8g3bcU7ZM

This range extender is supposedly very efficient - 30-40mpg.

I don&#039;t know if they still sell them, but I&#039;m sure an industry creating range extenders for electrics will inevitably grow fast, once electrics start being mass produced.



Nissan will initially save a lot of money from not having to deal with any governmental regulation on mpg efficiency/pollution tests...so I understand why they wouldn&#039;t want to include range extenders on their new green autos.  + they will get much more lucrative cap and trade pollution credits they can sell to would be polluters for their autos that are zero emission.</description>

		<description>Carlos Ghosn was a dope a year or so  ago when he claimed electric propulsion in any form made no sense.

Now that he has been granted monoploy provider to

Project Better Place, why he&#039;s been transformed and now claims that only &quot;pure electric cars&quot; (i.e. battery-only) are worth anything, proving that Carlos is still just as misinformed as ever. Actually, his company doesn&#039;t have the expertise nor the batteries to build a Chevy Volt type electric - you know, one that can go anyhwere, doesn&#039;t require the owner to maintain two cars, one electric and one gas powered.

What hilarious is that the Volt can avoid 95% of gasoline even without any away from home rechareges, while the pure electric like Ghosn&#039;s (with a 100 mile range - and a 50 mile driving radius) can&#039;t come even

close to doing that.</description>
