The Legacy Of The EV1 – From Creation To Destruction
Automotive News recently released a great article and reflection video testament to the now extinct EV1 by GM. In this video and article, Automotive News covers its advocates and detractors, its innovations for the time, and hints to its demise. This comes on the heels of the 25th anniversary of the car’s creation.
For those of you that are unaware, Sandy Munro had a hand in the EV1’s creation, working with GM on the project. Sandy laments, “That was a pivotal point that GM could have basically dominated this market completely… no one else was thinking about this… there never would have been a Tesla.”
“I think that the EV1 was the best project I ever worked on,” says Sandy, which is a big statement coming from a man that has worked on some of the most profitable and innovative automotive platforms that have existed.
