Here's an interesting article. Starting at the end of 2011, Ford will start selling an electric Ford Focus and claims the car will deliver a better mile-per-gallon equivalent (mpg-e) than the Chevrolet Volt, and will be rechargeable in half the time required to recharge the electric Nissan Leaf. Microsoft will be providing software help owners charge their vehicles when electricity rates are low. Ford has invested in a new version of its MyFord Touch driver connect technology to provide information that's specifically relevant to electric vehicles, such as the distance to the nearest charge point and the car's expect range. The company is working with Best Buy's Geek Squad to provide service for in-home charging stations.
