DETROIT -- The first mass-market electric vehicles are about to go on

green vehicles hitting showrooms over the coming year.


"are about to"

The Chevrolet Volt, from General Motors, and the Leaf, from Nissan,
both launching in December, are just the beginning of the
electrification trend. At least eight hybrids and 12 plug-in electric
cars in every price range are planned for 2011, with another batch of
electric vehicles (EVs) expected in 2012.


"expected"

The rollout of these vehicles will be regional, starting with
California and a handful of other states, including New York, Texas,
Washington, Oregon, Arizona and Tennessee, among others. It could be
several years before EVs are readily available across America.


"It could be"

Electric airplanes are next. It's inevitable.


Nope.

We're running out of oil.


Nope.

Meanwhile in the real world:

"Sales of Tata Motors' Nano, the world's cheapest car, plunged by 85% in
November compared with a year earlier, the Indian carmaker has said."

"The carmaker also said that sales of its Jaguar Land Rover-branded models
"continued their upward trend"."

The lesson in this:

Non-performing **** boxes don't sell while real cars do.

Aren't you supposed to out supervising solar installations or something?
