Answer
It depends upon what you mean by "full-electric car technology" and by asking "which countries"...
Electric cars are not a national phenomena. They are things. National policies can promote electric cars but to my knowledge no country has nationalized an electric car building company and is producing electric cars on their own. Corporations may give some a feeling of national pride or identity but many corporations are multi national and may hold allegiance to no country.
Countries and areas that promote electric cars with incentives are more likely to attract corporations that are making electric cars. Such companies are in some ways not very different than other corporations. If an area will provide certain grants, property, utilities, or tax incentives then companies are more likely to build a plant in that location. Having cheap labor and reasonable lines of supply are also a plus. Selling their products may require a different set of incentives to attract buyers.
A case in point may be "Better Place." http://www.betterplace.com/ This company does not make cars. They sell a battery swapping service. They have several international initial target locations including: Israel, Denmark, Australia and Hawaii, San Francisco and Canada. The nissan leaf was to be a part of their system and may be in the future. For now they are swapping batteries on the Renault Fluence ZE. http://www.betterplace.com/ By some measure this might be considered a "full-electric car technology," but to what country are you going to attribute this technology? Shai Agassi, the companies founder and CEO has lived in California and Israel.
The Tesla Roadster is an American company and a media success. It is now selling their cars internationally, but the actual number of vehicles sold is presently just over 1000.1 Their are many lessor known electric vehicle companies that may happily sell you a vehicle that is hardly a production run. For a full production run of a full electric vehicle (BEV: battery electric vehicle) that is fully highway capable in the US we are looking to the Nissan Leaf as a first. Zap vehicles have been built in China for years and sold by an American Company internationally as motorcycles but we might not necessarily put these in the same class as the Nissan Leaf. The same may be true of other of the ess expensive Chinese cars.
I would agree that the Volt is not a "full electric" vehicle, but it is more electric than the more parallel hybrid prius. From a purist point of view perhaps even a BEV is not a pure electric vehicle as it uses chemistry in the batteries. A pure electric might use ultracapacitors for storage or something like this: http://electric-vehicles-cars-bikes.blogspot.com/2009/08/korean-researchers-develop-electric.html

Best things to do and Tattoo Shops in San Francisco
Jake B
I'm going to san francisco next weekend for a 4 day weekend. I was just wondering what are the best places to visit for tourists and what are the hottest local spot to eat and play in san francisco. I would like to see the golden gate bridge and I was also wondering if there are any redwood forests nearby. Also I would like to get a tattoo and was wondering what are some of the best tattoo shops in san francisco.
Answer
The best tatoo shops:
Lyle Tuttle Tattooing, 841 Columbus Ave, San Francisco, CA 94133, (415) 775-4991
Soul Patch Tattoo, 1599b Haight Street San Francisco, CA 94117, 415-552 3444
Two of Soul Patch's artists just opened their own place in the Mission: Modern Electric Studio, 3150 18th Street, suite 276; San Francisco, CA 94110; 415 252-0707
Things to do:
Tour of AT&T Park&/or giants game
Alcatraz
Chinatown - try Dim sum at Gold Mountain on Columbus
Take a Cable Car ride

Golden Gate Park - De Young Museum
Fisherman's Wharf/Pier 39
Union Square

A ferry ride to Sausalito or Tiburon would be a great add.

Marina District
Haight/Ashbury
Redwoods are going to be a few hours drive.
Restaurants:
Lunches- Farmers Market (at the Ferry Building), Mission (La Cumbre, El Toro, or La Tacqueria), Swan Oyster Depot, Mitchell's Ice Cream
Possible Dinners: Slanted Door, Zuni, Foreign Cinema, Boulevard, or for a special but very pricey treat, Gary Danko!

If you are driving, be aware of the expensive parking at the hotels. Have fun!!
