The Existence of Hybrid Cars: Silent, but Deadly
Chaos runs rampant in the ACEA. The room is being burned down by, not fossil fuels, but by the car-owners themselves. Opel Cars CEO, Florian Huettl, has been targeted for his views on the progression of electric cars, as have many others focused on the same thing. “I know that companies such as Ferrari and Lamborghini have been against me in committee because I’ve supported an electric car transition, but they don’t like that”, says the kidnapped CEO. Directly after his kidnapping, an assassination attempt was made on the CEO.
The room seems to be divided among those who want a future with electric mobiles and those who want to “stay with their history of gas cars”, as Huettl put it. Many other pro-electric company CEOs feel the same. The CEO of Subaru, Atsushi Osaki, has voiced his agreement as well. Resolutions have yet to be passed to determine the future of electric cars and the room has seemed to turn to violence because of this.
Another pro-electric company, Ford, has also been targeted. The explosion at Ford’s factory has resulted in 145 deaths, 25 of which were children on a school tour. Ford’s CEO, Jim Farley, has claimed this as evidence of an attack on those who are striving for a hybrid-centered future. This is only one of the many explosions that have taken place on pro-hybrid companies. Many of the CEOs that have been speaking out in favor are worried for their own safety.
