3. Will people PLEASE stop spreading myths?

The disappearence of a primitive, short range electric vehicle which cost $80,000 to build is hardly a great mystery. GM had produced emissions filtration tech good enough to meet the California definition of a "zero emissions vehicle" without it having to be 100% battery electric, which was the only practical option back when the rule was originally passed. GM wasn't even close to making money on the EV1 and never would be, so they stopped making them.
