Are you a Japanease slave! What is American slavery in Japan!
Companies increase in Asia, and the American company is destroyed. The Japanese U.S. forces let Asia prosper, and U.S.A. becomes poverty / the slave country. The U.S. forces are in Japan they let Asia prosper, and to make U.S.A. the beggar country.

If my this email reaches you, you please transmit an email of the receipt to me.
I transmit this email to the various countries in the world 1,000 on one day. As for you of the transmission of a message of this email please cooperate.

If a company is established by the foreign country, Japan and U.S.A. cannot give up a foreign company because of an electric wave. Japan and U.S.A. attacked it by an electric wave not to be able to establish a company. War is early to collapse a company / a country. Like the peace and order police to maintain, do not put U.S. forces in Japan not to occur by war in Asia! U.S.A. easily has the territory in each Asian country by americans radio weapon after having destroyed an Asian company by the war of Asian countries.

Please withdraw U.S. forces early from Japan. If U.S.A. withdraws, I am terrible, and I anger Russia / Korea / China / others and let Russia attack Japan. I generate the Asian Great War. “Japan collapses in the radio weapon which I invented in the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union is small, is not Russia regrettable even if Russian?” Is Russia an insect mole cricket? I am terrible, and I blame Russia / Korea / China / others with “and let you launch an all-out attack on Japan. Almost the past, U.S.A. becomes rich if I do so it. I am terrible, and you make a fool of Russia / Korea / China / others and attack Japan.

Japan invented the radio weapon very first in the world 60 years ago. Therefore U.S.A. does not have the right with Japan as the territory. While U.S. forces are in Japan, the American economy is lost. U.S.A. does not develop unless U.S. forces leave Japan. The American company goes bankrupt, and it is life like the slave.

Japan and U.S.A. did secret war (a crime) in a radio weapon one-sidedly in the various countries in the world. And Japan and U.S.A. became the industrial country of the first place world. Japan and U.S.A. destroyed foreign economy. The Japanese radio weapon is powerless. Your country must retaliate for Japan and U.S.A. The company where is higher than Japanese and american half is a thing of your country. All the Japanese and American companies are things of various countries in the world. The world must retaliate for Japan and U.S.A. till a company disappears from Japan and U.S.A. May you forgive the long secret war that Japan and U.S.A. used a radio weapon for? 　It does not need the weapon to collapse in Japan and U.S.A. Do not buy a product and a car (Toyota・Nissan・Honda・Suzuki・Mitsubishi・Ford・GM・U.S.A.car)・Electricity（National ・ Matsushita・ Hitachi ・ SANYO ・ NEC ・ Sony ・ PIONIEER ・ SHARP ・ Victor ・ others）produced in Japan and U.S.A.! 　If you teach all your nations it in email and telephone and others, Japan and U.S.A. fall by all means.
And the companies of your country increase.
If an American base leaves Japan, war occurs in Asia. It is war, and the Asian industry is destroyed, and the American industry prospers.
Because the American base does not generate war in Asia, the U.S. forces become a slave keeping Asian industry. And the Asian industry continued developing, and the American industry was destroyed. The American base is a slave keeping Asian industry. The war does not happen in Asia till U.S. forces leave Japan, and the Asian industry continues developing, and U.S.A. starves from now on.

It will not generate war in Asia that U.S. forces are in Japan. And the Asian companies increase, and the American company is destroyed. It is U.S. forces go out of Japan, and to die so that U.S.A. becomes rich almost the past.
It maintains the Asian war misfire student peace and order that U.S. forces are in Japan. Asian enterprises of the thing will increase in a maximum. And the U.S. forces think if they are terrible if the U.S. forces which are in Japan become rich and are happy even if the American nation becomes same as a beggar. Because secret, it is possible even if the American nation starves in the U.S. forces which are in Japan, the U.S. forces think if the U.S. forces are very happy. It occurred for the self-interest of the U.S. forces which were in Japan that an American company went bankrupt. If U.S. forces go out of Japan, the Asian company is destroyed by war, and U.S.A. becomes rich.

It is in lobsters anything, and the whale grows. Only Japan caught whales and exterminated the whales from the world. As for several hundred years, you keep the whaling prohibition of fishing and must make the world sea whale richness. The whale can eat directly.
Anyway, you must retaliate against Japan and U.S.A. till it is it in the company of your country in Japan and the American company which You got by secret war till come to it-rich with a whale the again world sea.

Please translate this email into your national language, and let You show all nations of your country it and cooperate. If possible in the foreign country of the email please cooperate.
In the Japanese Government, the email to the foreign country is blocked to hide a Japanese evil deed. I establish free mail (yahoo / goo / excite / infoseek / hot), and the email to the foreign country is prevented with several times. Please send this email to Americans address below from your country.

Ok, add Mercedes-Benz with a series hybrid (aka "range extended EV"). Stated to be due out by 2011 or as early as 2010…. 105 mile range per charge. May be in an S-Class that we see it 1st.More info at http://benzinsider.com/2008/03/mercedes-benz-developing-100-electric-car/

A couple of items…

1st the cover of the April 2008 issue is an image of Volvo’s ReCharge concept car. The 2 page spread (pages 50/51) on it gives the 1st hint at when we could possibly see it in production… it says "Not until 2015, most likely". So is no competition if it’s really that far out.

Also I liked this story about "Electric carriage made its debut in 1832"… see http://tinyurl.com/2×7qum

Nathan (#25)…

I think you mean there are no commercial EV’s on the US market? Also there are Neighborhood EV’s on the US market where they are legal. If not already on the market, I think we’ll soon see some EV motorcycles (and scooters).

Regarding the ’90s, you do realize none of the automakers sold their EV’s, they were all leased, so the answer is they sold zero. The couple hundred Rav4-EV’s (wish I had one myself!!!) were only saved because of public pressure (though someone on this site says it was for other reasons but I forget what they said it was).

Myself, now that GM says the Volt could cost up to $40k instead of “comfortably under $30k” they had previously thought they could sell it for, once the weather warms up, I may go back to looking for a very good condition everything but engine vehicle (possibly a Chevy S-10 as they look easier) for a good price, and put the $10k (using the popular golf cart flood lead acid batteries, other types obviously more expensive) or so and my labor into converting it into an EV.

Guess what? There are no electric cars on the market.

After hearing what happened at Tesla, I reviewed all the different “electric cars” on the market and there are none. Some of these companies are flat out lying. Nothing that is really available in a production scenario. Maybe some custom-built and conversions, but nothing rolling off an assembly line anytime soon.

It looks like Reva, ZAP, Zenn and maybe Miles have at least a sort of assembly line process, but these are not designed for freeway driving.

I remember in the 90s there were a lot of electric car startups and the automakers were showing around all sorts of concepts, but how many did they sell? All that’s left that I’ve seen are a couple hundred Toyota RAV4 EVs.

Consumers, buy electric. Don’t wait for the car companies, don’t wait at all. They want you to wait while you keep burning gas. Buy them and drive them and you will send a signal that you are ready. The cars will get better over time, but not if no one buys them today.

Volvo just showed their ReCharge concept (range extended series hybrid), which is like the one they’ve shown before, but this one with a 1.6L diesal ICE driving the range extending generator.

See http://www.autospectator.com/cars/volvo/0036720-volvo-recharge-concept-plug-hybrid-battery-only-range-60-miles

60 miles/charge on the battery at up to 100mph highway, 4 hub mounted wheel motors for real all wheel drive, 3 hour recharge, etc

No hint if/when this would turn into a production vehicle, which markets, or pricing.

Chrysler’s has just announced a trio of EV concepts to be shown at Detroit auto show in Jan. 2008…

http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/200711201453/FREE/71120012

And at least one of them is a series hybrid (especially if the hydrogen fuel cell is replaced by an ICE)
