Title of article in 7/22 issue of Wall Street Journal article.
In this article, the author says, "These outcomes (making big expensive battery powered SUV's) make no sense in climate terms, naturally. Nissan is giving up its pioneering electric Leaf in favor of a big electric SUV aimed at affluent shoppers.
 
WSJ, Murdock's paper. Don't subject the birds to this by using the WSJ by using to line their cage.

I own an e-tron electric SUV. Breakeven is under 10,000 miles as power is mostly hydro.
