no future -

20.2.2013: Rafael de Mestre, Ja Tesla Model S ist nicht perfekt, ich hätte auch gerne eine Reichweite von 1000 km, ist es aber perfekt weiter die Umwelt mit CO2 zu verschmutzen, wenn es Alternativen gibt?

Die Umweltverschutzer müssen sich verteidigen, nicht wir, die Elektroautofahrer!

2.7.2012: Katsuhiko Hirose, Chefentwickler für Brennstoffzellen-Technik bei Toyota, über den Stand der Dinge in Sachen Wasserstoff-Mobilität.
“Im Hinblick auf 400-600 Kilometer Reichweite wird ein Fahrzeugkonzept mit Brennstoffzelle günstiger und leichter sein als ein rein batterieelektrisches Fahrzeug.”

Closing 2012

31.12.2012 Comment from Rafael de Mestre: Again a year full of promises comes to the end. Nearly no brand fulfilled it to bring out a full electric car this year. Only two stars in the EV sky were shining bright. Tesla and Nissan. Renault brought 4 EVs out, but without any support on the shops, ranges far under 200km and no infrastructure in France it was a very bad start. Let's see when the other brands will wake up. In my eyes the guilty ones are the buyers, which keep buying the gas cars. Motto for 2013 should be:

Don't buy things you don't want and you will get the ones you want.
