I’m hopeful but I can’t believe it until they’re delivered in decent numbers and with no tricks like the last time.

Cheers, Aussies! I’m in Los Angeles, USA, and have been struggling to convert a BMW coupe to full battery power for several months now, almost finished… there are many people here that have done or are doing the same thing, and if the big car makers won’t do it for us, we can do it ourselves.

It’s been taking a terribly long time and more than it should have only because when I started I had no experienced help, but if I had to do it again, and had all the parts ready could do in an week.

Shame they did it to a Hyundai Getz aslong as the production one isnt a Getz it will be fine

Why did that stupid bitch follow that noisy 4-wheeler everywhere?

It’s good to see the future cant be stopped.. In the future there will be no more retail shops selling or should I say forcing us to buy buy buy shit we dont need.

torque means bundles dude

No we leave the old motor in it ; what do you reckon? Electric motors do create heat. Sorry, you throw the old motor away, not recycle it? Coal powered cars, great! Who pays for the power supply at work? Torque means nothing! Why are you holding the steering wheel like that? So many questions to ask, but wait, there are no members left to ask….. If this is the leader of the democrats, no wonder no one votes for them…..

Gasoline’s getting pricey in USA.People are making changes.

the whole country could have its electricity needs met with solar energy farms.

the problem is the polititions are in bed with oil gas and lumber.hell hemp can be used to manufacture woodlike products of any kind.the oil alone in hemp can be used to make its own bonding resin for composite woods.

weve got a whole country out there to grow it in for biofuels too.the polititions are backwoods whores

Not a fan of the US, However they are comendable on their EV efforts, whish I could say anything for Australia in that regard.

Golf3rM4n September 3, 2009 at 2:22 AM

at least the US is finally taking a lead. the Chevy VOLT in 2010 and the Tesla “WhiteStar” sedan in 2010 under $40K. Thank god america is finally doing something worthwhile. check out teslamotors(dot)com. its only in the US though :/

Hey, how about taking over the Mitsubishi factory and start pumping them out?!

ghostjaguar September 5, 2009 at 7:53 PM

About Time!

I’m sick of hearing that crap”10 to 15yrs”.

Electric cars would be here, now! if the Australian government would let them in!

I got sick of waiting and I am building my own. You can too.

Solar charging is the way to go in OZ!

omg the Democrats are still alive.
Democrats for Senate in 20..and.. umm.. when’s the next election?
I do want to apologise, though. There were 3 “Democrats” to choose from, and I know my friends picked the wrong one when it came to the crunch. And others chose Greens and Family First – due to the ties to what their titles could mean. You guys should seriously rename yourselves to something us dummies can pick up. Like “The Senate You Actually Want” or “The Good Guys”.. etc
