The auto industry has been scrambling to find ways and technology to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. Over the past 10 years, the automobile has changed dramatically from large SUVs ruling the roads to cars so small they could be mistaken for an enclosed golf cart -- or even a go cart. The first push to reduce dependence was ethanol and hybrids. Both would prove to help bridge that gap, although some consumers would find it hard to justify the cost of buying a hybrid versus a similar model for several thousands less. For 2010 and 2011, we should see a wave of electric vehicles hitting the show room floors.
Ford, Chevy and Nissan will probably be the first to sell electric vehicles in the United States. Although limited on a charge, they may prove beneficial in certain situations allowing companies to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gases. All three of the auto companies mentioned above are bringing at least one electric-powered car or van to consumers by the end of 2010. The neat thing is that they are very similar but also different in terms of what they are designed to do.
