From White House pool reports:
President Obama walked into the showroom of the 70th annual Washington Auto Show Tuesday afternoon, where he inspected about 15 new electric and hybrid models from Ford, Dodge, and General Motors.
The president was individually shown the vehicles by Sharif Marakby, director of electrification programs and engineering for Ford Motor Co; Reid Bigland, Dodge president and CEO; and Ed Welburn, vice president of global design for General Motors.
The President walked down the line of cars as each company representative explained their fuel efficiency, manufacturing process and design details. The president got inside many of the cars, sitting behind the wheel as he inspected their interiors.
