How GM is Making Electric Vehicles Relevant

Some rah-rah from someone who works for GM. I think the basic ideas later in the piece are sound — all else being about the same, the US is not going to widely adopt electric cars that are solely lethargic commuter vehicles, so gas/electric plug-in hybrids are the next step.

But I disagree with the turd that leads off the article:

There seems to be in the minds of many some sort of inherent conflict between being a large, traditional automaker and the ability to develop cars of the future.

I couldn’t disagree more with that sentiment, and GM is on a mission to prove it.

Dude, you’ve been bailed out by the taxpayers and you’re on the verge of declaring bankruptcy. If you had great vision and the ability to develop cars of the future, you wouldn’t be in this situation.
