If you're one of the many who would happily be seen cruising silently down the street in Subaru's all-electric R1e, why not let Subaru know how you feel? Buried at the bottom of a page on the official Subaru website there is a blank line next to a "send" button. On this line, anyone can write up to 400 words on what they think about the R1e. Something tells me that our readers can easily come up with 400 words on why building and selling this car tomorrow is a smart move for Subaru. We won't tell if you just cut and paste from previous nice things you've said. Thanks to yanquetino for the tip!

New York 2008: Subaru R1e on the stand

The all-electric Subaru R1e will be seen on the streets of New York City more and more in the coming months, thanks to the expansion of a testing program that now includes the New York Power Authority (NYPA). The NYPA will be getting two of these very nice-looking vehicles to test, similar to what's being done in Japan. How do we know they're nice looking? Well, the galleries from Geneva were one way, but now we've seen it in the metal, and we are impressed. Very. This car should be made available, and soon.

Subaru EV could arrive as early as 2009

Subaru has been field testing a fleet of R1e battery electric cars for some time now in Japan and had previously indicated that they want to have an electric car in production by 2010. It now looks like 2009 is the time frame for the start of production, at least in limited quantities. Following an initial run of about 100 units the first year, Subaru wants to ramp up production to help drive down battery costs. Subaru is targeting a price of $17,500 by 2012-13. Within a few years after that the company wants EVs to be available for the equivalent of about $13,000. The first production cars may based on the G4e that was shown at this years Tokyo Motor Show.
