The technology was there but manufacturers wouldn't produce the new bulbs because people would only buy one and that would be that.

In a simple comparison, manufacturers prefer to sell things that use expensive fuel, use expensive engines, and have to have expensive servicing etc etc......Thus making money !

I must say that I was pleased to be in at the beginning of the Electric TT but I feel that without investment and having more manufacturers involved, we won't see an Electric TT in 2012 even though petrol and diesel prices are shooting up. How about Methane ?
