My wife sent me this post about the Geneva autoshow, as I happen to be flying out of Geneva tommorow after some skiing nearby.

I think I can squeeze in 90 minutes before I have to head out to check it out in person. Reading these reinforces that the world is changing, but slowly (and at a hefty price tag).
I have to say, I think Ferrari's hybrid is a bit of a gimmick to get from 14mpg to 20mpg - and the all electric SLK has the same range anxiety issues that led me to get the Fisker instead of Tesla... and the Porsche's range is silly low. Plus, WOW, did you see the price tag. The Fisker is a bargain!
This reinforces that I am glad I didn't wait for the rest of the established marques to catch up, because they haven't. I'll be glad to be home soon to drive my Fisker.
