What really happened to the EV1:
How GM and Chevron colluded with Toyota to kill the Electric car

1920-50

GM, Standard Oil, Firestone, others collude to buy up, dismantle and eliminate small urban railroads and divert rail subsidies to road construction. Rails are outclassed, can not compete and ridership declines; some rail owners cooperate by cashing-out, leaving the rail lines with unsustainable debt and deferred maintenance.

1960-69 

GM, under pressure from VW Bug, produces the fuel-efficient CORVAIR. Ralph Nader (1965) conveniently kills it under false pretenses of safety and the danger of small fuel-efficient cars, perhaps for Standard Oil. Nader is rewarded with a big settlement from GM for "privacy rights".  

1975-83

J. DeLorean, once the wunderkind of Chevrolet and NAO, is fired when he suggests building a sensible car; founds his own car company to do so, fails; sabotaged some say.

1984-86

Ross Perot merges EDS into GM; but criticizes Board and CEO Smith. Perot fails to fix GM, bought out..

 

 

 

1989

The late Roger B. Smith is perhaps embarrassed by criticism such as captured in Moore's docudrama "Roger and Me" (1989) about layoffs and the effect of shrinking GM on the industrial heart of America. GM still refuses to build sensible cars, but Smith is stung.

Aerovironment, Hughes and the 1987 Sunraycer. Using a confidential budget of $3M, Roger B. Smith builds on the success of the GM "Sunraycer" to fund a modern Electric car concept, using two 3-phase 50 kW inductive motors and lightweight racecar construction, lead-acid batteries, 336 volts. This was the prototype of what became the "Impact".

1990-94

Struggles inside GM result in 50 prototype "Impact" EVs, loaned out to about 5000 beta-test drivers, who loved it, then taken back and crushed. Eventually, this became, 6 years later, the EV1. From garage to race course to GM car, a struggle highlighted in the book "The Car that Could", a highly redacted version of GM's internal disorder.

(date unknown) Limiting use of EVs, NEC 625 is designed to cut off the EV from the existing electric grid, losing their big advantage. By artificially requiring a special "charger", NEC created an obstacle to EV use. Curiously, there is no such requirement for RVs, which routinely plug-in to ordinary 220v outlets at RV parks.

Honda and Toyota blindside GM with release of HondaEV (lease to individuals possible) and RAV4-EV (lease only to fleets) at a cost of $499/month lease, and with Nickel-Metal Hydride NiMH batteries that were superbly reliable and had over 100 miles range per charge, were not affected by cold, and were better-built EVs than the EV1. Toyota, coming out of nowhere, using NiMH under a grandfathered cross-licensing deal with Stan Ovshinsky. Toyota had been excluded from the American Autombile Manufacturers' Assn, so had not been in touch with GM.

Toyota, after covert signals, unaccountably becomes the only modern car company to offer an Electric car for sale to the general public. Toyota agreed to sell, without trick or artifice, the Toyota RAV4-EV to the general public, the only time Electric cars were ever offered for sale. What Toyota failed to disclose was that they only had about 300 Toyota RAV4-EV left, and that they used an obsolete 1996-99 RAV body that no longer was in production; and they did not reveal the uncertainty about being able to support the batteries, due to the Chevron lawsuit.

2002 Dec.

Settlement agreement negotiated between Chevron-Ovonics on the one side, and Toyota-Panasonic-etc. on the other. Toyota agrees to pay royalties, agrees to eliminate certain transportation applications of its use of NiMH, and pays a one-time fee of $30 million. No more new EV-95 replacement batteries are ever made available for sale.

"Don't Crush" expanded to try to save 77 or 78 remaining GM EV1 at the Burbank GM training facility. We knew GM would never agree to sell its cars, but had to try anyway. Used in the upcoming movie about the EV1 by Chris Paine.

2005

"Don't Crush" expanded try to save fleet-lease Toyota RAV4-EV (those purchased in 2002 were never in danger). Howard Stein and spouse Linda Nicholes were paradigms of lessees who didn't want to lose their RAV4-EV, including SCE and others. This culminated in vigils and picketing of Toyota dealers. In response to Customer requests, Toyota changed its policy, allowing Santa Monica and other fleet lessees, including Linda, to keep their Toyota RAV4-EV. A major victory, and thanks to Toyota.

Who Killed the Electric Car is released, a public relations disaster for GM. GM pays for Google "hot words" for all those in the movie, links to "the real reason we killed the EV1".

2006 Fall

GM announces its intention to produce a serial hybrid, tentatively called the "volt". But GM refuses to use proven lead or NiMH batteries, either of which can easily yield the required 40 miles all-electric range of the Extended Range EV ("EREV"), as GM terms the serial hybrid. GM rationale is supposed to be:

 1.

NiMH is "too heavy" to sustain an EV for 40 all-electric miles. But this shows more about the ignorance of the GM folks who say this than it explains about the car.

2.

NiMH is said to be "scarce" and not in sufficient supply for a production program. But most Nickel is used for Monel and stainless steel, use in batteries is a tiny, tiny fraction of total use -- and it recycles with a scrap value, like aluminum, lead, iron, copper, etc.

3.

NiMH is said to be "too expensive" ... but Lithium is always more expensive than NiMH...

4.

GM says Lithium has superior energy density and space parameters; but on the VOLT, GM has to pay for 16 kWh to access only 8 kWh in useable energy for 400 lbs., while the 1000 lb. NiMH battery in the Toyota RAV4-EV has 30 kWh of accessible energy or 50% more, in practice, than Lithium. A 400 lb. NiMH battery pack would have 12 kWh of accessible energy, more than could be accessed from the 16 kWh of the VOLT pack.

??

Any other GM arguments??

GM asks for "back-end" subsidies for previously sold gas-guzzlers via GMAC, and future subsidies for building and discounting existing gas-guzzling SUV.

Dan Neil calls for GM to be nationalized.

Detroit Auto Show at which Wagoner claims GM's future is electric but doesn't know the difference between "assembled in US" and "manufactured in US". Still no revision of GM's false claims about why it had to crush the EV1 and fight against ZEV mandate.

I enjoyed your website, and appreciate the time invested in it. Until seeing the documentary on Planet Green on television, I had completely forgotten about the EV1. I now remember seeing them, and didn't pay much attention to them then, as I thought they were hideous. Now, after remembering them, and seeing the story behind them, I believe it is a really sad thing that we don't still see these great little cars today. I'd love to have one myself. I'm completely and thoroughly disgusted that those great cars were destroyed. Thank you again for a great site and such a wealth of information. Long live the EV1!!!! ...by Clint Lowe 12/03/2009 21:42
