Anderman is founder and chairman of the Advanced Automotive Battery Conference (AABC); the 13 th annual conference is scheduled for February 2013 in Pasadena, California. The report notes that despite heavy subsidies by governments and automakers, 2012 EV sales are coming short of meeting many automakers’ sales and production plans.

After the conference, the research office sent a delegation, including Vine, to Italy to see the 18-meter-long, 45-tonne vehicle. Propulsion equipment was housed in the back of the vehicle along with three lead-acid batteries and five buoyancy spheres, which controlled its vertical movement. The vessel was completed in 1964.

But things changed for Cox when GM came out with a new version of the EV1 with a non-toxic nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery with more than twice the energy of the original lead acid battery. This doubled the range of the car and his problem was solved. After pulling some strings, Cox took delivery of the new version of a leased EV1.

The hybrid models available today use lead-acid ornickel-metal hydride batteries that are are proven, reliable, and fairlycheap, but their limited storage capacity means that the cars’ driving rangeusing electricity alone is short.

80 miles was the range of the EV1 with Lead Acid batteries, that GM tried to use because they wanted the project to fail. It had two seats, it used lead-acid batteries (because of cost and reliability, not because of your stupid pet conspiracy theory) until the very end, and had an impractically short range.
