Mercedes To Phase Out Gasoline By 2015

Posted by kdawson on from the what-no-flying-monkeys dept.

arbitraryaardvark sends in a story a couple of weeks back in Yahoo's Ecogeek blog, reporting that Mercedes will phase out petroleum-powered cars by 2015 (mirror), and notes: "Story is unconfirmed but well sourced." "In less than 7 years, Mercedes-Benz plans to ditch petroleum-powered vehicles from its lineup. Focusing on electric, fuel cell, and biofuels, the company is revving up research in alternative fuel sources and efficiency."

    For the record, I am a working class man, IE poor

    Ah, the single biggest fallacy of public discourse. Somehow, since I'm not poor, I don't work.

    You want to not be poor? Work harder, dumbass.
