La Dolce Veloce

Dailmer-Chrysler seems to have a huge lead over the rest of the industry when it comes to fuel cell vehicles. Their prototype A-class (more info here) looks well designed and shows huge advancements in packaging and miniturization of the technology. Meanwhile, Japan focuses on hybrid technology (though will switch to hydrogen quickly once that becomes practical), and American car companies focus on building bigger SUVs. If you own stock in GM or Ford…sell it, sell it fast. Those companies don’t seem to grasp the inevitability of the automobile’s future. Ford’s hybrid attempts with the Escape shows they’re starting to work on it, but theyre behind and not likely to become the technology leaders.
