GM Sells Cars Fueled by 100% Ethanol by 2010?

We human race will continue to rely on fossil fuel until we almost run out. That's human nature. We don't solve problems until it is actually there.

btw, ethanol powered cars aren't automatically energy-efficient. They just use alternative fuel. They can still be very inefficient.

From what I know, GM is already working on cars that run on ethanol, hydrogen, as well as electricity. However, producing a concept vehicle is one thing, pushing it out to the retail market is quite another.

More importantly, I think there are major pressures from oil companies to prevent the release of these vehicles which would basically render a big trunk of their companies business as irrelevant.

So, the technology would be there. Mass production? Unlikely.

GM is still struggling to reshape its business in big trucks and jeeps.
