“In a signal that electric cars could be moving a little more mainstream, Best Buy Co. is going to sell charging stations for Ford Motor Co.’s models this year.
The companies will team up to install household charging stations for the new Focus Electric cars being launched in the U.S., Ford said Friday.”

“DETROIT (AP) — Ford Motor Co. said Friday that an electric version of its Ford Focus sedan will go on sale in North America by the end of this year.
Ford introduced the electric Focus at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. The car is expected to go up to 100 miles on an electric charge.
The automaker says the Focus can be fully charged in three to four hours using a 240-volt outlet. That’s half the time it takes to charge the Nissan Leaf, a competitor that went on sale last month.”
