A new study sponsored by Indiana University concludes that President Obama’s vision of one million plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) on US roads by 2015 will require concentrated efforts action from all stakeholders— the auto industry, federal government, the scientific community, and consumers—to be realized. BEVs vs. PHEVS.

Plans for a 2012 general release of the PHEV Escape did not wow anyone. While GM takes the time to make a ground-up new PHEV vehicle, Ford and others could get the EV show on the road more quickly using existing platforms. Still no firm numbers, nor irrevocable commitment. All eyes are fixed on 2011.
