Maybe it WAS the customer?
On the 50th anniversary of the Ford Edsel, TIME and Dan Neil, Pulitzer Prize-winning automotive critic and syndicated columnist for the Los Angeles Times, look at the greatest lemons of the automotive industry:
1997 GM EV1 - The 50 Worst Cars of All Time - TIME:
"The early car's lead-acid bats, and even the later nickel-metal hydride batteries, couldn't supply the range or durability required by the mass market. The car itself was a tiny, super-light two-seater, not exactly what American consumers were looking for. ... GM, the company that had done more to advance EV technology than any other, became the company that 'killed the electric car.'"
