I actually was looking into electric hybrid cars or anything else for that matter that was somewhat stylish yet eco-friendly (which brought me to the Chevy Volt & Tesla--some hope?). Unfortunately, pricing for these cars will remain high for now until it becomes the norm among consumers who demand a change. But I almost want to wait until 2010 to see what other developments occur with cars as I feel Chevy will be behind the curve with their release by then due to some other car company releasing a greater, better car...which makes me think that other consumers are in the same thoughtframe-- which means for now...the consumer demand is not yet that high to demand new developments at a faster pace.
