The Ford motor company's abandonment of electric cars effectively signals the end of the road for the technology, analysts say.

General Motors and Honda ceased production of battery-powered cars in 1999, to focus on fuel cell and hybrid electric-gasoline engines, which are more attractive to the consumer. Ford has now announced it will do the same.
