History has just turned a corner in Southeast. A little over a month after two electric ZENN cars debuted in Kodiak, one of the “Zero Emmission No Noise” vehicles has appeared in Sitka. But the new ZENN is not the first electric car in Sitka. That prize was awarded over 30 years ago.

    Nice story. I like the historic perspective added too. I’m curious how hybrids are fairing in Sitka now and look forward to the opening of the first plug-in hybrid dealership there anytime now…

    p.s. everyone run out and rent “Who Killed the Electric Car” now if you haven’t.
