As far as buying a usable EV for real-world use goes... Here's a list of manufacturers: Saab, Fiat, Citroen, BMW, Renault, Rover, Audi, Suzuki, Mercedes, Proton, Lotus, Subaru, Jaguar, Mazda, Rolls Royce, Morgan, Hyundai, Kia, Lamborghini, Skoda, VW, Seat, Bentley, Mitsubishi, Chrysler, Porsche, Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Honda, Toyota, Ford, Volvo, GM NOT ONE of these is currently selling a highway capable EV in the US. Doesn't that strike you as odd? And doesn't it also strike you as odd that the press are not asking why?
