Forbes/Fortune: WTF?!?!?

Printed Media...It was just one week ago today that I vented over a ridiculous article in Fortune, which stated the opinion that the Volt “seems headed to the dustbin of automotive history.”

Well, this week, Forbes published an article entitled, “The Hottest New Cars For 2016.” Three of the vehicles listed were gas/electric hybrids (Acura NSX, Chevy Malibu and, wait for it… yes… The Chevy Volt, which was #8). That’s hybrids representing 23% of the hottest cars next year!!!

Well, I guess I’ll believe Fortune (when it comes to things automotive) when the dustbin of history freezes over…

About the author

An accidental EVangelist: On my way to work at Apple one morning, my car was rear-ended (and totaled) by an SUV, driven by a guy playing with his smartphone.
This led me to get my first plug-in vehicle.
I started blogging about my experiences immediately.
A year later, in 2013, I was hired by the dealership as their "EVangelist."
I became a board member with the Texas Electric Transportation Resources Alliance (www.TxETRA.org) and perform public speaking in the DFW area regarding electric vehicles and environmental issues.
I also teach others how to sell plug-in vehicles or manage EV sales.
I'm on a mission.
