Where can I buy a true plug and run electric vehicle today (no toys pls)?
Yes, the GM EV1s have all been crushed aside from a handful are in museums, etc., out of the public’s hands. Ebay is a good place to find Toyota RAV-4 EVs, Ford Ranger EVs, and some EV conversions. The EV Trading Post is good, as are the Electric Auto Association other chapters’ web sites. If you’re really industrious, you might also find some AC Propulsion conversions at auctions — sorry, don’t know what auctions to suggest! You might also keep an eye out for plug-in hybrid conversions done by companies like Hymotion and eDrive, who make a conversion kit for Priuses that allow it to get 100+ mpg by changing out the batteries for ones that can run the car in electric-only mode for longer than a standard late-model Prius. These cars then get plugged in to recharge the batteries.
