'\"RIVETING... HIGHLY ENTERTAINING\" - John Lopez, Vanity Fair In 2006, as many as 5,000 modern electric cars were destroyed by the major car companies that built them.Today, less than 5 years later, the electric car is back... with a vengeance. \"Revenge Of The Electric Car\" follows 4 larger-than-life entrepreneurs at the forefront of the electric car race. First, there\'s Bob Lutz -- Mr Detroit himself, the cigar-smoking vice-chairman of GM, who has been making gas-guzzling cars his entire career. He is challenged by Elon Musk, the young dot-com maverick billionaire who thinks that he can show Detroit how to build cars with his Silicon Valley-based Tesla Motors. Carlos Ghosn of Nissan-Renault, the desperately smart and ruthless businessman who singlehandedly rescued Nissan from ruin, wants to flood the market with affordable mainstream electric vehicles. And lastly, \"Gadget\" Abbott, a reverend/designer/engineer is one of thousands of electric car DIY-ers who together may be a force big enough to change the auto industry forever. \"Revenge Of The Electric Car\" opens in the US beginning Oct. 21.
