    The report alleges some pretty shady practices by BYD. I don't follow them but know that they're trying to eventually sell to the US market. The article mentions their F3DM PHEV and e6 EV.

    If anyone's curious, the NY Times F3DM "review" at http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/20/automobiles/autoreviews/byd-f3-dm-review.html.

    Looks like the anti-hybrid lobbyists are beginning to gather ammunition. Getting off gasoline in this country will be a bit like trying to win World War III. A lot tougher than health care reform.
