191. The electric cars cost $40,000 to buy.

This for a two-seater car that had a 70-80 mile range and took 5-6 hours to charge after that. It was just not viable. That's why the EV1 never lasted. The EV1 only existed because California demanded originally that one car of every ten sold in California by 1998 (then 2003) be zero emissions.
