I was talking to some folks at an environmental conference this weekend and they made a great point about people who buy electric cars.
"I wouldn't have been able to buy my Nissan Leaf if Bob here hadn't bought his Chevy Volt, and before that the people who bought their Prius models."
It's more important people are buying electric cars, then who they're buying them from. With increased demand, more people can see the benefits of going this route instead of the traditional gas vehicles. This will hopefully expand the market making it more attractive for other companies to develop add electric cars to their lineups.
I realize many car companies are dead set against electric, but you can only bottle up demand for so long.

The large car companies are not against electric vehicles, they are suffering the innovator's dilemma, and will likely be disrupted.[1] [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Innovator's_Dilemma http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Innovator's_Dilemma
