Who killed the Electric Car - Click HERE for Original Thread

Talontsi96
Great documentary about the electirc car EV1 released by GM mid 90's and their efforts to destroy all of those cars when the lease ran out. Coverage of how the electric car was besically scrapped by politicians and big oil. I give the movie 9/10 and recomend it to anyone.

Hi Talonsi96,

It was a great movie. I did a write up on this a while ago.

Hi Jamie

Here you go. http://www.sonyclassics.com/whokilledtheelectriccar/

Rogers also has it. http://www.rogersvideo.ca/movie.asp?mid=32471

As Talontsi96 mentioned. Blockbuster will also have it.

Once you see it, you will realize why I find the GM hybrid a joke. I love how they are claiming the improved fuel economy by 10% on a hybrid over the regular models. Infact GM now pushing hybrids is a joke, especially after the facts they presented in the documentary.
