China's BYD motor company has just shown Detroit a thing or two about auto making.http://www.treehugger.com/files/2008/04/byd-electric-car-e6-crossover-mpv.php
The battery company's arrival in the auto business has produced a car that will sell for thousands less (about $22,000), arrive sooner (around 2011) and out-perform it's American rivals.
The company (Warren Buffet owns 10%) seeks to make a splash during the current Detroit Auto Show.
Just combine these vehicles with the solar powered parking garages and we'd have a good answer to some of our problems.
(Maybe Detroit could produce the same vehicles for less if they did away with the unions and treated their employees like slaves)

Of course the car is made by 8 year olds, painted with lead based paint, and the factory that manufactures it runs on coal.
I kid, I kid...but really.
