Bob Lutz interview- Electric trucks should have come first

[kenliles]

My criticism is his continued insistence on calling plug in hybrids "EV's", which ends up burying his actual points. He has a valid point that hybridizing larger vehicles can have significant advantages and payback, and that hybrids avoid the range and some of the cost issues a full EV would have. Unfortunately his message is lost because most people think he's talking about actual EV's, not plug in hybrids.

Exactly. As usual he is about half right. But that's lost because the context is wrong. This is typical with Lutz.
I also agree with others though that given his know animosity for global warming, environmental issues, and anything not ICE, his recent views bode well for EV. In other words if Lutz is full on board hybrid, EV is a given. Good points JRP3
