Who Killed the Electric Car

That is one opinion. The US government killed the GM electric car The real reason was, GMs electric cars were built under an exemption to US EPA, NHTSA and other US regulations, as experimental vehicles. As with all road worthy experimental vehicles they could not be sold to the public. Like the Chrysler turbine powered cars befor it, GM could only loan or lease the cars for a limited time, after which they had to be destroyed.
