This. Is the Car. I Want.

Battery-electric sedan due out at the end of the year, 80 mph max. highway speed, 120-mile range, sticker price of $30K.
I'm drooling.
I'm a big proponent of electric cars. They're the best way to reduce our dependence on foreign oil in the short (and long) term using technology we already have. I wasn't even aware of the sedan you want; thanks for posting it.
I'm still drooling over the Tesla Roadster which, as far as I know, has just been released in full production. It's not very practical for me (2-seater, $100k), but I'm really interested to see their follow-on car, which is supposed to be a sedan closer to $50k or $60k. Each should have over a 200-mile range per charge. And for the Teslas, they have a charger that takes less time for a full charge.
I'm pretty excited about what this technology will bring.
