After around $850 million in funding and six years in existence, the electric car infrastructure startup Better Place is expected to file for bankruptcy within the next several days, Fortune reported Friday. The Israeli business journal Globes also reported yesterday that Better Place’s main investor Israel Corp had been mulling over whether Better Place will be able to continue its operations. If Better Place files for bankruptcy, it will be a sober end for a startup that was founded by the charismatic Shai Agassi in an attempt to get the world’s drivers off of gas-powered cars.— Bill Clinton’s great advice: “As a matter of fact, if you can give away your car for free, that’s a sure way to succeed.”
