The 2000s

Category: Chronological Archive
Description: The shift to electric vehicles begins as hybrids start taking market share and Tesla is founded in 2003. Dale Earnhardt died while competing in the 2001 Daytona 500, Plymouth was ended in June of 2001, and then the September 11 attacks rocked the economy and hit the auto industry especially hard. The post-9/11 recovery would be wiped out in the economic crash of 2008-2009 that would see General Motors & Chrysler need government assistance to keep their doors open. Pontiac & Saturn would barely survive the 2000s, both were eliminated from the GM lineup in 2010.
