Earlier in July (subsequent to the Letter of Intent), Sympowerco and HMSI began discussions for the development of design criteria and specifications for Prototype Hybrid-Electric Powered Test Vehicles. The flat-plate alkaline battery technology is inexpensive, and more environmentally friendly than NiMH, NiCad and lead-acid batteries.

Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) would combine today’s new gas-electric hybrid technology with larger batteries that could provide an all-electric operating range of 25 to 35 miles or more. The result is an 80+ mile-per-gallon vehicle — with even greater fuel economy possible utilizing bio-fuels.

But when you do, your car essentially becomes an electric vehicle with a gas-tank backup. The comparison keeps being raised, though studies are conclusive: The "well-to-wheel" emissions of electric vehicles are lower than those from gasoline internal combustion vehicles. You dont have to plug it in.

GM has announced plans for public sales in 2010, and almost every carmaker now says it will sell PHEVs or highway-speed battery electric vehicles (BEVs) sometime after 2010. Weve kept the summary table below generally up-to-date for passenger PHEVs, but not for BEVs, motorcycles or larger vehicles like buses and trucks.
