With gas prices on the rise, I assume people will look towards electric cars and hybrids more than ever. Now's a good time for BMW to start pushing out their electric models including ones under their Mini sub-brand. Jalopnik found that "in the last week alone, nationwide prices have risen an average of five cents, which makes it a 20-cent increase in the last month." This trend is probably going to continue and it's worse for places like Hawaii and California where the price for regular is nearing $3.70 a gallon.
