In spite of the con job in the film "Who Killed the Electric car?" which claimed, in total bizarro fashion, that although Toyota, GM and Honda all built and then cancelled their electric car programs (all for the same basic reason - crappy but very expensive NiMH batteries), it was GM that did the killing of a technology that was, quite frankly, anything but alive to begin with. Paine had made a backroom deal with Toyota and promisd to not make them villains in his film. Chris Paine is a total lair and complete crook. The EV-1 was a piece of crap, to put it mildly.
