I'm not sure why you'd assume that. No, the hurdles are due to new technology (i. e. electric motors produce a ton of torque, which means the tranny has to be rock solid), but they've also been facing attempted buy outs from at least one car company, GM. If you'll recall, GM is the company that killed the electric cars of the 90s.
