Who Killed the Electric Car?

Following up on two posts ago is this documentary from Sony Classics, Who Killed the Electric Car? Showing up alongside An Inconvenient Truth at Sundance, the movie showcases the death of GM's EV-1. Should be an interesting show if less terrifying than Truth. You can read an interview with the makers at Gristmill.

From Wikipedia:
"Many consumers and government officials questioned General Motors commitment to the EV1 program. Inadequate marketing and artificially constrained supply have led some to believe the EV1 program was intended to fail, and to prove that electric vehicles were not feasible. Also of concern was GM's insistence on repossessing and destroying all EV1s, rather than selling them at the termination of the program, and GM's ties with the oil industry. GM insiders later provided documentation of long waiting lists that went unfulfilled."
