hydro quebec is working on new type of batterie:called lithium titane
This battery is suposed to be viable for 45 years at normal usage and is capable to function at minus 45 degree celcius. They said it should be ready within 2 to 3 years. By pulling the plug on the engeneering process chrysler or should we say Fiat want’s us to buy their tiny little junk cars, because if you have the choice to buy a big american car that does more than 50 miles a gallon or a small fiat that get’s 50 miles a gallon guest which one people will buy

I was planning to buy a chrysler electric. I don’t know what chrysler is thinking.But I think that big money is influencing this decision, somebody want’s us to remain slaves to the petrol companies and old thecnology.We can put the entire library of new york on a small memory card but we can’t build a proper battery for an electric car, come on, who are we kidding, there are forces at work here and they are not looking out for the interest of all of us but for the interest of a few people who don’t want things to change.

The guy that gave Chrysler all of the money from DOE was Lachlan Seward. He worked for Chrysler in he 1980’s. What is the connection to they guy, the big 3 and all of the billions of tax dollars he gave to his buddies?

I agree with Robin and feel like this IS a blatant abandonment of promises made by Chrysler to secure government funding. What if more people stopped relying on car companies (or the government) to find the answers and began riding their bikes more, taking public transportation more and carpooling more…

So the first thing that went through my mind when I read that we should let them know we won’t support more taxpayer funding was a caricature of some evil CEO behind a huge empty desk cackling because he knows the government doesn’t care if the taxpayers support the bailouts or not.

Stinks to be this jaded about our government.
