Thanks, Lizzie. I just wanted to know the players in that game.

There are huge barriers to becoming an auto manufacturer. Tesla gets around them by using a proven platform that has already passed the government hurdles, the Lotus Elise.

Perhaps the government should force Detroit to partner with these guys? They can build vehicles to meet government regulations, and provide platforms for the innovative power systems of these new players.

thanks...

edsels and tuckers of the new millenium....

yeah, those golf cart looking cars will be a huge hit in the u.s. (hope i am wrong)

but guess what?

if you can't get u.s. market share, you're nothing more than a small wanna be niche player...glad to see them thrive, but if you think they make up the next wave you are kidding yourself

but what else is new
