While there are some very early rumors of an 80-mile battery being worked on for a future-generation Volt model, it's still an open question if the domestic automakers can survive long enough to make to a second- or third-gen PHEV.
In more fun news, Ruf builds an electrically powered 911 and the AIRPod (above right) will soon come to New Zealand. Wheee! Oh, and this: Corvette Z06 wins MPG Marathon.

More headlines after the jump.

Here's something we like: certainty with where the auto industry is headed. Johnson Controls says that electric cars will eventually win. Finally, an answer from one side, and the chorus grows as Shai Agassi criticizes the Volt as a "niche product". Sometimes it's best to just sit back and let others fight it out while you brag a little bit. Much obliged.

It's an AutoblogGreen small car extravaganza. We've got news on the Toyota iQ, the Tata Nano, the VW up!-based electric car coming from Audi and mega-sized MINIs. How small can you go?

Want the first Chrysler hybrid? Sorry, it's in the hands of a certain Lee Iacocca. More will be made, though, I'm sure. Whether people plop down their money for these big rigs is uncertain, though, especially when things like the smart EV, the Zero and the C-Cactus might be coming in the next few years.

Two words for you: Silent NASCAR. Sound good?

Yikes, isn't $465,000 a little much to pay for an EV1? But that's the amount that it seems someone paid for a 1998 model in British Columbia recently. That's just nuts. It's $465,000 Canadian, but still. We'll save our pennies for the B0 (B Zero) or the Nuvu, thank you.

Paris, Paris and more Paris. The new Honda Insight, the Opel Insignia EcoFlex, the Renault Z.E., the Venturi Volage and more. Plus the Lexus Prius.

All right, get your Back to the Future jokes ready. An all-electric 1981 DeLorean is currently on eBay and, if you bid high enough, comes with a flux capacitor. For slightly less money, you can also get a Mercedes-Benz S 320 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY. But, if you really want to help America, says Terry Tamminen, be a patriot and ride a bike.

On the top: the previous design. On the bottom: the latest version of the Aptera Typ-1. Like the changes? (Read more about them here). Also, we want to ask you a question: Should GM enter the Chevy Volt in the Auto X Prize? Could be good, could be real embarrassing.

AutoblogGreen continues its AltCar 2008 coverage with a look at the "poor man's Tesla", the Triac and an electric motorcycle. And what's that that the LA Times guys said? Interesting stuff, that's what. But we all stop our yammering and listen to Uncle Neil when he gives us a LincVolt upate.
