They are being realistic enough to realize that a straight electric car still has technological hurdles that make it unviable at this time, thus the diesel back up. Also, for being innovative enough to use their small diesel technology, which is quite green. However, it is a Mercedes, so it will probably cost in the mid-$60k range to buy one. But maybe they will shock me and sell it below $35K, but I doubt it. Hooray for Mercedes!!!

New fuel cells can compete with internal combustion engines.

I'm looking forward to cheaper, greener, and more efficient fuel cells in performance cars.
