At current time I'm not sure if demand is the reason for the price right now.I believe it's rather the weakening us $ which support the higher price.IMO it's something artificial.

Because us $ is down they compensate this with a higher oil price in us $ .That's also the reason gold is up.Bernanke his goal is to create inflation .He brought so much paper money in the market he needs inflation.Probably later in time the demand will be an issue but I think not today.

I don't think I will drive a hybrid.I like engines with lots of torque and power .However Lotus has developped a roadster with a pure electric engine .Normally an electric engine has more power then a fuel driven one.For that roadster I would quit my Z3 M

The Lotus Tesla
