This year's show also marks the historic arrival of the modern electric car era. After years of anticipation, consumers can finally own mass-produced electric vehicles. The first two highly anticipated vehicles to kick-off this modern era of electric transportation include Chevrolet's range extended electric Volt and Nissan's battery electric LEAF. A dozen more electric drive vehicles will be featured at the show. More than half of the production vehicles on display will be for sale in the coming year, and others are forward looking concepts that will map out how electric transportation will progress in the future.
With new green concepts and production vehicles from at least 20 manufacturers, consumers have a greater selection of low-emission, high-mileage vehicles to choose from than ever before. Hybrids still represent the largest volume of "green" vehicles including the popular Toyota Prius, Honda Civic and Ford Fusion hybrids, and KIA plans unveil its first hybrid, the Optima sedan.
