As a great lover and supporter of the electric car, I was furious to see that even though GM and Honda had created perfect cars back in 1990, and the pilot customers who had received the cars were all extremely satisfied and wished to purchase them once the lease expired, yet GM and Honda called on their customers to return the cars, which were then destoyed.
The technology was there.
Why did they do it??

One wouldl think that nowadays the electric car would be eagerly welcomed, however, Canada’s federal government does not allow “Zenn” Motor (which is a proud Canadian company), to sell their international winning award,electric car in Canada!
