The Motley Fool just posted an article on the prospects for electric
vehicles. (Despite the silly name, they are a serious investment service.)

"Despite the naysayers' grumbles, electric vehicles are here to stay.
Even better, some manufacturers are posting mind-boggling sales gains.
According Baum & Associates, Ford's electric-drive deliveries were
46,197 in the first half of 2013. Nissan's fully electric Leaf booked
sales of 9,839, tripling its sales volume in the year-ago period.
Overall, the report estimates that electric-drive sales are up about 27%
in the first half of 2013 compared with the year-ago period.
And Tesla? Tesla's own premium battery-powered sedan may have sales of
about 8,931 for the same period, according to an estimate by automotive
consultancy Autodata. That's a big difference from the few hundred
vehicles it delivered in the first half of 2012."
