Gee, I already have a Ford EV with all those components...
ABG Quick Drive: Ford Focus EV mule [w/VIDEO] - AutoblogGreen
According to Autobloggreen, their plan is to make an EV based on their C-segment platform for 2011. The performance should be around the same as the current Focus (0-60 10 seconds), range around 100 miles, top speed 85-90.
Seems like they are quite serious about it.
This is exactly what EV purists are looking for. A short (100mile) range highway legal car. The zealots have said all along that that is all most people need. It also sounds like Ford is willing to educate buyers to this. Should be interesting to watch this grand experiment and if has the result that they have predicted.

What happens when the different makers start bashing the other types of EVs? Technology wars anew.
I didn't see anything in the article regarding price. Any guesses? I would hope less than 30K.
yes, at 25k plus tax credits to boot, that would open up electric car ownership to a much broader audience.
25k?.
Yes. After a tax credit of 7.5K, that puts the price at $17,500. That's a good price, don't you think?
