The United States is a land where gas guzzling pick up trucks are kings of the road and it is a major challenge for the automotive industry to sell electric cars.

From this week the US government is cutting a tax credit to buyers of the Chevrolet Bolt, the flagship electric vehicle made by General Motors, which will provide another reason for drivers to swerve away from battery powered cars.

Rebecca Lindland, founder of rebeccadrives.com in New York, says drivers are concerned about engine emissions, but reluctant to go electric and she tells the 大象传媒's Russell Padmore how GM is not making a profit from its Chevrolet Bolt.
