I want an all electric car that will cost me under 25k, hold 4 people with 4 doors, have a realistic range of 150 miles and be highway capable. I would buy such a car right now if possible. However, I feel rebuffed by the fact that every car manufacturer seems to have the cars but they will not sell them hear for another 2 to 4 years. I really want a Mitsubishi EZ Miev, but when will I be able to buy it in the US.
