GM’s Bob Lutz Speaks with Bloggers at NYIAS
April 14th, 2007 | Posted in: Latest News
GM’s Bob Lutz spoke with a group of bloggers at the New York International Auto Show, including Matt Buchanan of Gizmodo, Jen Chung and Tien Mao of the Gothamist, Rebecca Carter of ecorazzi, Brandy Schaffels of AskPatty, Michael d’Estries of GroovyGreen, Mark Durham of Wired/Autopia and Dan Vaughan of Concept Carz. Terrific very detailed video interview. PodTech’s Matt Kelly has the full video interview here here.
We particularly like Bob’s comment about the environmentally friendly nature of the Lithium battery and the known medicinal value of Lithium. He says” feeling down?…take a bite out of your battery.”

Everything Mr. Lutz says makes sense including the $25K-$30K price tag. I hope that GM is as sincere as they appear to be. Only time will tell.
No matter what batteries they ultimately use, it will take them 2 years for R&D, certification, and tool-up for e-flex production. If these 2 projects (car & batteries) are handled simultaneously, we may have the cars in the 2010 model year which will come on the market in the fall of 2009. I’d still like to see the biodiesel option in the US as well as Europe!
Concept - Spring 2007. Prototype – Fall 2007. Testing & Cert. – Spring 2008. Tool-up – Fall 2008. Production – Spring 2009. Sale - Fall 2009.
Then again, Volkswagen developing a 200+ mpg car, within three years… http://www.autobloggreen.com/2007/04/16/volkswagen-developing-a-200-mpg-car-within-three-years/ and the current Jetta diesel can get up to 50 mpg (downhill).
