I just seen a PBS special featuring this car. It looks kick ass for sure! Wish I had an extra 100k laying around

Israel is testing that concept along with electric "filling stations" located throughout the country. They'll know more by 2010.

Chumps,

Did you see this car? It's one nice looking vehicle. Most all electric cars look kind ugly.....not this one.

Yes...I think it was a Nissan, but I'm not sure. A few different models.

Too small.

This trend to smaller death trap cars is very unsafe. Try lugging around 3 kids and 2 strollers in that little tin box.

The left wing of this country doesn't get it. Global warming is a scam. No one has said one word about this volcano that has been blowing into the air for weeks probably doing the equivalent of 50 years auto pollution.

If we did sugar ethanol that would make sense - corn ethanol is just stupid in many ways.

There is enough energy in a bathtub of water to run your car for a year we just can't figure out how to harness it without blowing something up.

Electric cars while possible, still uses a lot of fossil fuel from power plants and battery technology is no where near where it needs to be.

Hey Tx,

Tesla also offers a solar kit to recharge the batteries. That's about as 'green' as you get

If they offer one the size of an Escalade ESV let me know, I will be interested.
