Even with $4 gas, electric cars face dark days
March 12 USA Today
Over the last four to five years, automakers --
along with the federal government, Michigan, Indiana and other states -- have
invested billions into the development of electric vehicles and the
infrastructure to support them. But in 2011, electric vehicles, including the
extended-range Volt and Leaf, amounted to just one-tenth of 1% of vehicle
sales.
The low sales rate will increase at a slow pace over the
next few years, according to industry consulting firm LMC Automotive, which
predicts sales of electric or plug-in electric vehicles will stay under 1%
through 2017
