Finally, a 100% electric car that doesn't look like some cheap piece of plastic purchased at your local Wal-mart! I think I could see myself driving that car. 0-60 in approximately 4 seconds? 135mpg? 3-hour recharge? 250 mile recharge range? Hell yeah! Too bad they only offer it in limited markets (right now) and they haven't published any prices? Anybody want to guess on the cost? I'm thinking around $50kish.

Looks hot ... i'll just be scared if I get lost once and i past 200+ miles

[AustinG35]

Yeah, still one of the main disadvantages of electric cars, that recharge range, although the markets that they are setting, I think one should be able to get from point A to point B within the recharge time.

that car looks cool, and i hate electric cars. for hippies!

that is a pretty cool car. it has all of its peak torque at 0 rpms.

toyota also has an exotic electric car that looks bitchin...i think it's going to be over 100k cause it's all aerospace honeycomb panels or somethin - but they are lookin really good now. the torque curve is amazing, supposedly just pins you in your seat - just no cool exhaust note to go with it...that'll take some getting used to.
