I saw REVENGE OF THE ELECTRIC CAR (http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/independent/revengeoftheelectriccar/) last night. I liked it. They cover the roads to the release of the Tesla Roadster, the Volt, and the Leaf. They also chronicle a local car guy named Gadget who turns some high end cars into electric vehicles. Worthy sequel to WHO KILLED THE ELECTRIC CAR? (http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/sony/whokilledtheelectriccar/) According to the film, Nissan is going "all-in" with the Leaf. GM has high hopes for the Volt as they pay off the massive government loan that they received a couple of years ago. Tesla is trying to compete against the big boys, buy Elon Musk does not come off well in the movie. One feels most sad for Gadget, as his workshop is burned to the ground by arson. He then moves into a cheap location that is affecting his health, and finally buy the end establishes a new shop, rebuilds an electric porsche, and then acheives his goal of driving from LA to Palm Springs on a single charge.
Recommend to all...
