    This is getting to be a big job! If you wouldn't mind, please track down TMC/Electric Vehicle threads for those.

    These will go into the new "obscure" category (running and ducking!).

    - - - Updated - - -

    The section was named before someone insisted I put Tesla vehicles in the list. I'm a Roadster owner too, so don't feel bad! I'll change it to discontinued.

    I'm not trying to duplicate the list. This thread is just an INDEX into THIS section of the TMC forum. The goal is to identify all EV models that are / have been discussed and index them. This is to avoid having 15 stickies at the top of the section. Without stickies or at least a stickied index we get all kinds of proliferating threads.

    Honestly, the plugincars link which someone else posted seems to have everything and it is sortable.
    I'm not going to waste my time reproducing it.

    Each car on the list is prefaced by the makers name except The-New-RAV4-EV....I suggest to rename this one to Toyota RAV4EV or Toyota New RAV4EV.

    I found threads for a few of those and added them. Most of them I couldn't find a thread, or at least a reasonably dedicated thread. If you want to start a new thread for any of these vehicles, let me know and I'll index it.

    BTW, excellent idea to create this index Doug_G. Thanks for all the work you put into it!

    Might belong under:

    Discontinued Cars (including those that never made it to production)

    BEV Volvo C30 Electric (test-bed vehicle available for select customers through lease only)


    The link above directs to post #9 in this thread:

    Volvo plans an EV

    That thread starts out discussing an earlier Volvo EREV/PHEV-project, but starts covering the C30 Electric as well from post #9.


    There is however also this thread:

    New Volvo C30 fun web site

    …,but IMO the first one linked above seems to be more comprehensive.

    One or two here in Ontario, Canada. Toyota brought them in to shuttle between their plants in Cambridge and Woodstock and from what I understand, had quite a time getting them certified for road use here.

    Actually they didn't have to bring them in since the RAV (electric and ICE) is made in Canada.

    They are at least partially assembled at the Woodstock, Ontario plant. My company does a bit of work with TMMC and I thought it was said that they actually had to bring the vehicles back (i.e. import) from California. There was apparently a huge amount or regulatory "red tape" associated with their use here. Next time I'm speaking with them I'll have to ask about this.

    It seems though that the Renovo Coupe got grouped with Discontinued Cars (including those that never made it to production)... :wink:
