"Unlike the Volt, the Karma will have three operating modes. The default mode is "stealth," and it delivers optimal range and efficiency. Acceleration is governed to maximize battery life, and top speed is limited to 95 mph. Flip the switch to "sport" and you get unfettered access to all 408 ponies. "HEV" or charge-sustaining mode works a lot like a strong hybrid and provides deceleration engine shutdown, engine start-stop and charge sustaining."
Why not toss a few billion at companies like this instead of GM? Maybe we could finally get some good, American, electric cars built.
