Germany wants to put one million electric cars on the road by 2020 but is falling a wee bit short – to date there are about 4500 such cars clogging up the autobahns. And maybe that’s a good thing….

Only 995,500 ‘sparklers’ to go!
They should invent a portable lightning strike…when you need to accelerate PDQ (Pretty Damn Quick).
It’s just that those lightning strikes tend to leave a burnt crease in the hair do.
So if they give out a coupon for a coiffure and/or haircut after recharging your sparky car, I’m sure that will be enough incentive to remain ‘cool’.
They could call it the ‘Porta-Plasma’ filling station, just attach yourself and car to the thunder cloud grid. What could possibly go wrong?

This must tie in somehow with Germany’s stated intention of closing all nuclear power generating reactors.
And I thought that Germany was the most sensible of all the European countries.
Hmmm…..
Germany should know better.
I make it 2234 AD before they hit their target…
Them Germans have it all backward again, they should have invented Mr. Fusion (Back to the Future) first before plugging up there Autobahn with useless electric cars.
Unworkable and expensive.
What is the German word or expression for “heave-ho”?
Sun worshippers – that last line is hilarious!
Too bad they won’t have nuclear power plants to recharge all those sparky cars.
That’s OK we will have a million and one ethanol cars on our streets by then, also unworkable.
Opel Ampera (Chevy Volt) just the thing for the autobahn.
Present unit cost around US$250,000. each.
US June sales of 1760 reportedly include a large government buy.
Post Nov election look for the assembly line to be ripped out and shipped to China.

Wonder if the ship will make it across ok.
