furthermore..
I had a squiz at the latest new golf coming here in 2014
golf blue e-motion
all electric with a range of 150km 
good for the city slickers but not out in the wide openness
unfort the marketing imao of the names chosen i hope not reflect the clientele they are chasing for the 'blue' market
I can't help but think that the people with a desposition to black, depression and did I mention black maybe be the underlying target market
so if your feeling blue-mo or you are an e-mo step right up 
you better book your colour black now as they be selling like hot cakes!
(no offense to the unhappy and black clad of the VW brethren )
beyond blue might need some more funding

Still like the "unpimp my ride" series.
Electric cars are like fertilizing your vegetables with your own waste. Sounds like a good idea, but has more problems than it solves. Now release the

150km range is plenty for the intended use of an electric car. They're appliances for commuting and nothing more. How many people actually drive more
than 150km per day? I know that I drive a 100km round trip to work every day and it's a lot. When you consider the amount of time which I spend
idling in traffic during that commute, the electric car has some advantages. Personally I think that a small diesel car with idle-stop, such as the
Polo Bluemotion, is a much more elegant solution for personal transport. The electric vehicle is definitely going to be part of the overall future of
motoring though.

Just watched the add, nice music and graphics, told me nothing about the product though.
