New U.S. car company starting up
Now seems like a helluva time to start up a U.S. car company, but that's exactly what San Diego based V-Vehicle (VVC) is aiming to do. With a factory going up in Louisiana, the well-funded V-Vehicle hopes to "reestablish American leadership in the global automotive industry," starting off with an as-yet-unseen vehicle designed by Tom Matano, the man behind Mazda's Miata. (Matano's blurry sketches, above, are taken from a promotional video. Note the in-dash iPhone dock.)
Few other details exist about the car, although it will reportedly be either electric or a hybrid that uses an unspecified alternative fuel. Production is slated to begin in 2010.
