    "ONTARIO, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Feb 28, 2007 -- Phoenix Motorcars announced today it received a purchase order for four of its zero-emission, all-electric sport utility trucks (SUTs) from Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) to be delivered in June."

    "Phoenix's SUT can travel at freeway-speeds while carrying five passengers and a full payload. The SUT exceeds all specifications for a Type III ZEV, having a driving range of over 100 miles, can be recharged in less than 10 minutes and has a battery pack with a lifespan of more than 12 years. PG&E plans to place a purchase order for 200 of Phoenix Motorcar's vehicles annually to assist in its daily operation of serving over 70,000 square miles in Central and Northern California."

    That's awesome and encouraging. I can't believe that the Canadian Government doesn't do something to support the introduction of PHEV and BEVs. Very discouraging.

    This is so COOL! Phoenix Motorcar's are on my wish list for a car. If they start selling the SUV to the public then I will be VERY interested!

    Four cars are not a huge order but hopefully they will sell more if they perform as planned. Let's hope a few other companies sign-up as well. If the truly can recharge in 10 minutes the a 50 miles radius for a repair truck should work well in the city.

    The SUV they show on their web page is ugly but is the size of car I need next.
