"Driven by air pollution legislation, the threat of global warming and
a suddenly animated international competition, carmakers were making
quantum leaps forward in technology. Here at last were vehicles that
promised to not only greatly reduce pollution but also to perform better,
be more reliable, cruise further and last much longer than anything
the public had ever seen.
This could be, in short, a whole new evolution of the automobile,
at a time when such progress was desperately needed. "
