No, not even in terms of technology part except both are for electric cars. the new Detroit Electric is a new company that was formed as a joint venture between ZAP and Youngman Group of China. Then they decided to use the Detroit Electric name, and now somehow the Youngman group decided to pull out of the venture. anyway while i'm all for electric cars, i have some doubt about Detroit Electric. ZAP initially promised to deliver cars based on Lotus APX in 2008 but until now it has yet to be delivered. Now they have removed anything related to that car and now starting a new joint venture with proton the new company that revived the detroit electric brand. ZAP has failed again and again to commercialized their cars except maybe for ZAP zebra which is a small vehicle used maybe at club house etc. also ZAP has not been getting good reputation from investors lately as they has not been living up to their hype. but anyway, this deal was supposed to be beneficial for proton as they would not be involved in providing any money for the joint venture but rather a contract manufacturer, so i'll keep my fingers crossed and see what's going to happen in the next few years :) LogicallyMad, the new Detroit Electric got nothing to do with the old Detroit Electric.

Even the latest Honda Insight costs less than USD20K and the latest Toyota Prius costs not much more. Who do you think people are likely to buy from? Established make or a rookie with no track record? Drive train aside, Latest Insight and Prius is way better than Persona and Gen 2. At first I think they move is promising but not anymore after looking at their asking price.

You'll have to study the possibility of the EV industry taking off and you might end up a millionaire... or file for bankruptcy. Any takers? We are at a crossroad now, will green be the next colour of choice.. As flagship company maybe there could be some substantial return in investment.

AND they got a contract with DE. And for 2-5yrs later, they trying to aim to raise their capital USD 50 Mils (RM150Mils). LOL what a joke. I would prefer to assume this might be some sorts of 'commission' to someone. And the 'direction' changed quite fast. AND they got a contract with DE.
