Del,
if anyone on this list thinks the EV1 is slow, I've sure done a lousy job describing it. The response to hitting the accelerator is instantaneousness. If you apply some pressure it's what I imagine a 'g' force would be like. It surprises the hell out of everyone the first couple of times. The car goes to 60 in eight seconds and is governed to prevent you from going over eighty. The prototype "Impact" EV1 went over 183 miles in a slightly modified version and held the speed record for electrics until a year or two ago. A golf cart, it is not.

As for selling more of them. Where are they? Still waiting for delivery of the 99' with NiMH. New date is supposed to be March 13. It's been postponed half a dozen times having nothing to do with the battery.
