Σχετικά με αυτή την ταινία

It ran on electricity, produced no emissions, and was among the fastest, most efficient production cars ever built. So why did General Motors crush its fleet of EV1 electric vehicles in the Arizona desert? Launched by GM in 1996 in response to California's pollution crisis and resulting Zero Emission Vehicle mandate, the EV1 electric vehicle was a revolutionary modern car, requiring no gas, no oil changes and no muffler. But the fanfare surrounding the EV1's launch disappeared and the cars followed. Was it lack of consumer demand, as carmakers claimed, or were other forces at work? Those questions and more are answered in this compelling documentary that shines a light into the dark corners of the U.S. economy and government. 2006 EV Confidential LLC. All Rights Reserved.

There are some other cars other than the EV1 but its cool. Definitely a movie worth watching imagine if the EV program was still in production it probably would have put 25% electric cars on the road not the stupid prius.

People should be able to watch this documentary for FREE! Its too bad that "big businesses" like google are too greedy to select a few programs/movies every every month like this one and provide it FREE to there customers/users. $20+ to view a season of a free Over The Air network tv series episodes is equal to being robbed/heldup! And its NOT a dvd that u physically buy, take home to keep & view again & again as much as u like. This is why our society is slowly destroying itself. People just don't THINK!

These types of documentaries should be shown to politicians as well as in schools. Things are changing in the issue of electric cars nowadays... Mostly because of gas prices, but this movie can help eliminate various stigmas on electric cars so they become more marketable.
