Why did GM agressively abandon its electric cars? A good question. Come mid Sept or Oct of this year, it will be 50 years since I saw my first electric, nay, solar powered, car. Jr.Scholastic Mag and GM put on an assembly at school, promo for their car designing contest. GM guy sez "This is the way cars will run in the future." Puts a model car on the table, flips on a sun light, and viola, car runs to edge of table. Half a century ago. "Why did it sell huge SUVs? Because people want them" And we want them because they tell us we want them. Which is why GM is going belly up.
