Synopsis – What to Expect from “Who Killed the Electric Car?”
Who Killed the Electric Car? is a 2006 documentary film that examines the events surrounding the commercial failure of the electric vehicle in the United States, specifically the General Motors EV1 of the mid-1990s.
The film begins by introducing the EV1, a revolutionary electric vehicle developed by General Motors and leased to the public in the mid-1990s. The EV1 was the first mass-produced electric car in the United States, and it quickly gained a devoted following among its drivers. However, the EV1 was eventually recalled and destroyed by GM, leaving its fans confused and angry.
The documentary then explores the reasons behind the EV1’s demise, examining the political, economic, and environmental forces that conspired to bring it down. The film looks at the roles of the oil and auto industries, the government, and the media in the EV1’s failure, and interviews a variety of experts and EV1 drivers to get their perspectives on the situation.
The film culminates with a powerful call to action, urging viewers to take a stand against the forces that conspired to kill the EV1 and to fight for a future of clean, renewable energy. Who Killed the Electric Car? is a powerful and thought-provoking documentary that will leave viewers questioning the forces that shape our world.
