At least it did not burst into flames. Some failures are worse than others.

Do we own Fisker Karma with tax dollars?

I thought that the Prius was not plagued with so many failures in the beginning, but I may be mis-remembering. Also, the Honda Insight. (sp?) They were fairly expensive for their time, but did the engineering work?

Also, I would love someone to explain the major differences between these hybrid cars and these electric cars. I know my neighbors prius and the ones I rented are electric at slow speeds, and locally. The engine comes on for horsepower and range, but are the electric cars spoken about today (Volt, Leaf) substantially different?
