| Subject | ZEV Mandate Weakening |
| Comment | Please don't weaken the ZEV mandate. Several EV car companies are working on pure electric vehicles and will be able to comply. GM will be able to produce the VOLT by 2010. Several other well-known manufacturers have EVs in the pipeline. According to your paper battery tech for autos is not yet available. This is not so. The new Lithion (Li-Ion) batteries are powerful and safe and battery companies are ramping up production. If small private companies can meet the mandate, then so too, can the large corporations. Here are a few URLs proving that EVs are viable now: http://www.venture.name/category/cocommuter-cars/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0FLk-p9scE&feature=related http://www.greencarcongress.com/2008/03/subaru-will-eva.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euKMi3APHP8 CNBC VIDEO: http://video.msn.com/video.aspx?mkt=en-us&vid=1edd1f29-d20e-46a0-b5e0-bbf7172ed5b0 |
