Bluemotion = good, great fueleconomie and still a normal engine, weird that audi has petrol bluemotion versions an volkswagen only has diesel versions. Electric car = bad, if I had to chose between this electrical golf or leon or a suzuki alto, it was going to be the alto simply because that has a REAL engine you can hear. It's the same with all these electric car, the acceleration is great, but the top speed is pathetic

It's a tad early in the development of the electric car to condemn the whole process, right? Besides, the lightning-fast acceleration available with electric motors is surely worth some credit. And don't forget about Shelby's rumored Ultimate AERO EV with a 208 mph top speed...

the problems with electric cars are battery charge times and the fact that when the electricity come from a polluting power plant then the electric car isn't green at all.
