car is in a very active stage of development and may be built in the near future news. Skweiner 19:29, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but where are their dedicated power grids under existing highways and pick-up/drop-off units for the batteries at exits? Nice idea in theory, but it is not being built for another 25 years at the least. Avi 19:31, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's not under active development. This page was changed since it was in {{prod}}, but it previously said that the car couldn't be prototyped until they were able to get support from investors (and the page isn't on archive.org, sorry). The page currently says the car would be ready 4-5 years after they get investors. While it may well be notable once it's been released, it's not currently notable enough. --Interiot 19:42, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
With attitudes like this, how can it ever be built, even 100 years from now? The system is patented, and TX law was recently changed (6/05) to mention the system. Are wiki pages only for projects that you can go to the store and buy? There are many aspects to active development that are done prior to physically putting nuts and bolts together. The car is notable now because it is a ready-to-go design that solves many of the foreign oil dependencies that are such hot topics right now. Skweiner 17:58, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
We wish the car the best, and hope it succeeds, and once it does, please come back and make sure the article is well-written. However, companies and products should be notable first, and then afterwards are put in the encyclopedia. Some future products are found on Wikipedia, but typically they're by established notable companies, where the likelihood of the product being released soon is very high. --Interiot 01:30, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
