Well oil independent will only be achieved when there are alternatives to peritoneum derived diesel and jet fuels.

I think Israel of all nations has the brains to come up with real alternatives to oil.

This is thee real deal. This man has already 300million dollars invested in this. He has arlready signed deals with renault and nissan to produce the cars. he has the software and all the other resources to make this work. He even got the permission from the boulshavic establishment to do this becuase they know how much money this company can make  them. Heck if this works the arabs will be outta business and we will have the power!

and also he has the resources to wire up israels infrastructere for this transformation and its almost complete! Besides the israeli infrastructere could've already handled it. Plus we have all the electricy going to be powered from the high powered solar panels in the negev that can easily power up all of israel besides the wind power farms in the north and also a recent development project of trying to create hydroelectricy from the dead sea. You incorperate all these aspects of the electric infrastructere together along with wiring up israel for the electric cars this can be a success by 2020 and some estimates say evin in 2016! But anyways the majority of israeli jews will buy these cars because they know they will not be making payments to our enemies. You have the infrastructere wired up + the dire consumer market+the production of cars= AN OIl independent Israel! We do this than we can show truely how of a light onto other nations we are!

Exactly. If Brazil can do it, so can Israel.

Israel's size and location makes it a great place for cars powered by electricity...Here in America it would be quite a different thing... Electric cars are becoming more popular however until they are able to achieve better ranges something like 250 to 300 miles on one charge they will never replace conventional automobiles as the primary family car... Things here are far more spread out and people often travel a hundred miles or so in one direction... The system Israel was working on a few years back where the car battery was replaceable by stopping in to a service  center and the run down battery was swapped out with a fresh one seemed promising... People here in America are not going to want a car that can only travel a hundred miles or so before needing down time to recharge. Even a bigger stumbling block is the fact that most of our electricity here is generated by burning oil or coal... Coal would be OK however oil is still a problem.
