Electric cars are the future, says Nissan

Clipped to the Drawing Board by Dave Ellery

Never mind hybrid cars - and forget hydrogen power - because the future of the automobile is electric, Nissan says.

The company's best engineering brains said last week the quest for environmentally sustainable private transportation in the coming decade will be plug-in, rechargeable electric cars.

Nissan is backing this thinking with a firm pledge: it will have an electric car in showrooms in the US and Japan in 2010, with a view to selling the cars globally in 2012.
