Subaru appears to have been testing an electric vehicle since 2006 in Japan. I wonder why they are taking so long to bring bring it to the US. Test fleet won't be in NYC till 2009.

50 miles AER, no extended range, max speed 65 mph..........

All for only $17,500.00

And ugly..............

Are they kidding????
kmb1966:

The EV1 had ONLY a 100 mile range, and that was ONLY in warm area climates. That car was not the great savior that many make it out to be....

The Volt will have a 40 mile AER range at the end of a 10 year life, but still be able to go as far as you want with the built in ICE/Generator. That is a big difference!!!!
