Remember when blessed silence was a GOOD thing? Well, not anymore. Apparently, those treehugging Prius drivers have been inadvertently mowing down pedestrians in their path from Starbucks to Pilates, so GM is talking to the National Federation for the Blind about how they can add a level of noise pollution to electric cars.

FEBRUARY 17, 2011
Opel has come out with a range-extended electric police car (a plug-in hybrid, like the Chevy Volt) for the European market.
