    Well, its that time of year for the SD Auto Show. This year, like last but more pronounced, they will have the ECO CENTER. Might I also add that the Eco Center will be larger than the Ford and Chrysler spaces:rockon: and about the same as the GM

    Here is a link to all the participants as of today

    Eco Center participants

    On that list, I have seen the 1965 Shelby electric coupe replica, with lithium-ion batteries in person at the Street Smart Expo and at In-n-Out.

    Notable entries are...
    - Mitsubishi: iMiEV, four-passenger, four-door lithium-ion electric car with a range of 80 to 100 miles and quick-charge ability
    - Chrysler LLC: EcoVoyager, Dodge Zeo and Jeep Renegade electric and extended-range electric concept vehicles
    - Hyundai: HED-5 concept vehicle, Gasoline-Direct-Injection engine display, chassis of the next generation Sonata to display the Blue Drive hybrid technology. Kia: Borrego SUV fuel cell
    - Two Toyota Prius plug-in conversions (PHEV)
    - 1933 Rolls-Royce woodie electric conversion, a shooting brake wagon
    - Porsche electric conversion
    - Green Tee, most likely the first 1927 Model T-bucket electric roadster
