Another zappy car for Oregon - OregonLive.com

Another zappy car for Oregon - OregonLive.com: "Gov. Ted Kulongoski will get to test drive yet another electric car on Earth Day, April 22, as automakers compete to plug into Oregon for its environmental vibe.

Mitsubishi Motors North America plans to announce today at the New York International Auto Show that Oregon will be the first state to partner with the company in testing electric vehicles for the U.S. market.

The deal, following a similar agreement with Nissan and interest in manufacturing from Norwegian carmaker Think, doesn't make Oregon a green Detroit just yet. But it will capture international attention as Kulongoski tries to attract more clean-energy jobs."
