There is no love lost between the hosts of television show “Top Gear” and green vehicle producers. The Nissan Motors motor corporation isn't amused by a recent overview of the Nissan Leaf that the show broadcast recently. Article resource: Top Gear starts new electric car quarrel over Nissan Leaf.
Also, the entire point of that segment on Top Gear is that battery-tech is a stop-gap measure at the moment, a steward until the king is ready to rule. The true successor is hydrogen. Water for emissions and older cars can be converted to run on it. They were not saying "don't buy electric" they were saying "here's the issues you need to be aware of when buying an electric car." Issues most dealers don't tell you, which is why Nissan is mad.
