The two leading manufacturers of electric cars in the US are involved in a serious quarrel over alleged theft of vehicle design and trade secrets. Tesla Motors, who recently began production of their electric Roadster, claims that Henrik Fisker took on an $875,000 design contract with Tesla in order to access confidential design information.

While there has been a lot of hoopla about hybrids recently, Fisker Automotive may bring the first consumer plug-in vehicle to market next year.
