Save for first car or go through with electric car build?
Mar 30, 2011 by Alex King | Posted in Buying & Selling
I cannot decide if I want to wait one more year and get a car, or convert another car to electric like I had planned to do. I am afraid that if my dad and I buy the car for conversion, he will not be as willing to put in as much money for my first real
What do you want to achieve? How much budget do you have? What sort of driving do you do?
If most of your journeys are long distance, or high speed, then forget electric cars right now: they're not the right power source for the job. If

Coda Begins Production Of Its $40000 Electric Sedan
29.11.11
Coda Automotive’s $40,000 electric car may not turn heads but the Los Angeles startup is betting that customers will be drawn by what’s under the hood, so to speak: A battery that gives the bland sedan a 150-mile range between charges.
That’s 50% more miles than the electric Nissan Leaf can go on a charge (though the actual range of an electric car depends on a host of factors, including weather conditions, terrain and driving habits).
Coda revealed the price of the four-door sedan, called the Coda, on Wednesday when it said that commercial production of the vehicle has begun. The car will initially be sold only in California.
The company is pursuing what might be called an Apple strategy – designed in California, made in China . A Chinese company manufactures the car’s chassis and body while final assembly is completed in Southern California. The car’s lithium-iron phosphate battery is made in China by a joint venture between Coda and Lishen, a Chinese company. (Coda says it plans to build a battery manufacturing plant in Ohio by 2013.)
