yes, I don't ;-) Hybrid, lame range, lame range, hybrid...

I mean pure electric - 300 mi - or at least pure E and fun. Why is T still the only game in town? Is it the room for the battery? If so I'd expect the leaf (designed as pure electric) to be at least capable of 150 mi.. but it's not... nor does it have a fun mode...


On $ good point. But if T can do it with subsidies, I'd think someone with economies of scale and manufacturing capacity like the big 3 could do it without losing $ ???
