Electric vehicles will be available for customers in 2011. So while my car is powering the great city during the day how will I have juice to drive home at the end of the day? Just as wireless service providers offer smartphones at discounted prices, Project Better Place will offer discounted electric vehicles with usage pricing plans.

A simple, clean, efficient EV that wont run out of juice because of its on-board gas generator. Deliveries start in 2011. Hybrids are a proven winner, but a series-hybrid (range extended EV), such as the Volt takes things to a much higher level with existing and "mostly" affordable tech. Oh, and it looks wayyyyy cooler than the Volt.
