"Who Killed the Electric Car?"
Amid ever-increasing gas prices, this documentary delves into the short life of the GM EV-1 electric car. Once all the rage in the mid 90s and how now fallen by the road side. How could such an efficient, green-friendly vehicle fail to transform our garages and skies? Through interviews with government officials, former GM employees and concerned celebs (such as EV-1 driver Mel Gibson), Chris Paine (former EV-1 owner) seeks to answer the question.
