I don't think so. they really dont have much in the way of technology. the batteries are off the shelf,

Then why did Toyota do a sizable power train deal with them?

their nuance was to string them together to give the public what they want in 160-300 miles per charge.

Sales are being driven by the longer reach more expensive models @ 60kwh.

Its the styling and handling of the vehical that gets people to buy.

I haven't heard anyone make that kind of claim.

the technology is the entry point allowing them to consider it.

If you mean they're buying because they have the money and they're trying to make a statement, I'd agree.

Frankly we can use a new car company in the mix.

F,GM, TOYOY, most others have electric vehicles at least on the drawn boards, and with the majors, on the road(but not very efficient).

As you know I like 'em

Honda's gasoline car is quieter. Don't know why.
