ReviewJournal.com - Drive - Electric cars threaten gas engines

ReviewJournal.com - Drive - Electric cars threaten gas engines: "Wheelbase called the Cadillac Converj -- an electric car -- the best concept car at the Detroit show. Parent General Motors Corp. plans to have the two-door coupe on the road in about three years using the electric platform pioneered by the Chevrolet Volt. Vehicles such as the Converj will make it pretty easy to forget all about internal combustion and jump onto the electric bandwagon.

Still, keep in mind that the Converj is an outstanding example that is coming at the infancy of our desire to fully develop electric technology. That will take some time, but remember that the internal-combustion engine has been under development for more than a century and it's obviously not ideal or we wouldn't be looking to replace it."
