They’re creating more and more technology that makes environmental safe cars not only safe to drive, but have the best features like the regular cars.

Coda Automotive, a car producer from California, has announced that they’re postponing the launch of Coda Sedan. The sedan was supposed to be launch at late 2010 but now they’re postponing it to the third quarter of 2011. Coda Sedan is another electric car which was built up in China and then delivered to America.

The delayed schedule is probably caused by the resignation of their two executives, Kevin Czinger as the president and chief executive officer and Michael Jackson as senior vice president of sales, marketing, and distribution in global area. The company stated that they need more time to ensure the quality of their product before they finally launch it to the market.

Coda Sedan is a car powered by battery, which was based on Hafei Saibao, a sedan that was launched in 2004 in Beijing and sold in China since 2005. The price would be more expensive than Nissan Leaf.
