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.

Dave B,

Good find. It should get very interesting in the next 2 - 4 years, as we see which configurations will really pan out.
Trouble is, I can't find whether it will enter production. We seem to encounter this over and over again...concepts, great in theory, but I sure can't go to any legit dealer and pulunk my cash down on the counter and drive off the lot with my EV. Sucks.

2008 was supposed to be THE year of the BEV with Tesla and Phoenix. Now we're looking at 2009 with Miles and Mitsu. 2010 for GM and umteen other EVs...will any pan out?
Don't forget Fisker.
