Well, compare a century of development of electric cars (the damned things have been around since the turn of the previous century) with a century of internal combustion engine development.

Kinda like comparing 8-track to Cassette. ;-)

In terms of range, the electrics haven’t made much improvement.

The ICEs, in terms of power and range, have made incredible advances.

This may actually be a good time to buy a Volt and place it in storage. As soon as Oboma looses the election, GM will scrap this dog and, like the Edsel, it may be worth more as a collector’s item than it was as a production model.

Units sold, not the price in dollars.
