If they'd put in a good-sized NiMH battery - say 20-30 miles worth - plus a small IC engine, they'd solve all the problems - including the heater one.

Problem is that for GM to make a working profit - given regulations, taxation, litigation, and legacy costs - the car will have to sell for at least $30,000.

Think of all the money they're spending on Volt development. Whereas they've presumably got all the specs & tooling for the EV1 lying around somewhere. They could have had a limited-edition run out last year, for cheap.
