This week's episode of Zaproot with Jessica Williamson uncovers some sad news about ZAP!, the California based company that produces electric and zero air pollution vehicles. I was so excited about the ZAP-X! Aaaagh! :-(

  • Zap.....vaporware. Hopefully other real electric car companies pull through.

  • yea critics like zaproot are always right! Do they think they are protecting consumers by 'uncovering the truth'? What's the motive here? Why is every move zap! makes criticized in this way? Are they trying to make this electric car co. look bad? It looks like it.

    Let's think about this. Not just be swayed by whatever we see on these critics reports. Yea lotus should be an electric co's best friend! Right? GM & Ford too right? Gee I wonder why they didn't go through with it? Is the only reason we can think of that Zap! sucks? So it doesnt reflect on Lotus badly?... Why not? cuz Lotus is a proven company. Proven internal combustion right?

    Yea, in fact all these other failures should never happen & would never happen to a good business business, right? I mean, failure? In business? Wow that never happens!... I mean, all my business plans ALWAYS work out! Well, if they DON'T... you just might get sacked by Zaproot.

    The reality is if you run a small business... get used to failure everyday. This is like a normal day in business. To be honest, I expect more failure than that for an electric car company! This reflects badly on Lotus and the media in my book.

    Why are we all waiting for Zap! to fail anyway? All it takes is a few more biased reports like this to turn a good company into total rubbish. Nice work comparing them to bull poo Zaproot!...

    Actually! Shame on you Zaproot! Im offended at your foolhearty perspective! We need critics of these critics out there. Cuz this is just irresponsible and obviously a biased perspective.

    Now, if the company had a car explode or it didnt stand up to testing... that's worth a look. This is just nonsense! How dumb do they think we are anyway?

    Oh and believe me... there is NOT a concerted effort against electric car companies...

    now! repeat with me! There is NOT a concerted effort against electric car companies... There is NOT a concerted effort against electric car companies... There is NOT a concerted effort against electric car companies... There is NOT a concerted effort against electric car companies... There is NOT a concerted effort against electric car companies...

    Feel better? :)

    LibertyNo5, excellent points. Failure in business ventures is perfectly natural. And I still have confidence in Zap! and am excited about Tesla's new store too.

    Zaproot has no motivation to bash electric car companies. They're constantly promoting them. The show really just reports on what's going on in the green revolution. They were referencing the 7 page article about the failings of Zap! that Wired Magazine published. http://www.wired.com/cars/futuretransport/magazine/16-0...

    Zaproot has reported on "established" companies that aren't living up to the hype. Check the vid.
