LA Auto Show: Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger stumps for green vehicles in L.A.

California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger took advantage of the assembled press at the LA Auto Show to list his environmental achievements. He also had his picture taken next to five of the greenest vehicles from the show, including the BMW Hydrogen 7, Mercedes-Benz E320 Bluetec, Chevy Tahoe with E85 flex-fuel capability, Honda FCX fuel cell concept and Tesla Roadster. Schwarzenegger called on the car companies to “think beyond gasoline and deliver cleaner, more efficient cars,” and warned them, “you need to get on board, the train has left.”
