The GM EV-1 in the 1990s was an absolutely viable electric car that was lease-only, and practically every letter wanted to keep the car once the lease was up, but GM took them all back and crushed them.

The feasibility was there. The will to market it was not.

You are confirming what I am saying. Old car companies are even worst than tesla... This is the bleak situation we are living
