Concerns about tailpipe and CO2 emissions, energy independence, and safety have vastly increased funding for alternative fuels and propulsion technologies, from the EV-1 to the SULEV Civic to the Prius to fuel cells. These new vehicles have to sell in competition with gasoline and diesel powered ICEs to make a difference.
