| Pragmatist Location: UK London Posts: 1,979 | Electric Ion powered sports car http://www.wired.com/news/wiredmag/0...l?tw=rss.index I thought that battery tech was what was limiting the adoption of electric cars. Not only was that assumption completely wrong. this guy has developed a car which runs on lithium ion laptop batteries and goes 0 - 60 in four seconds with a range of 250 miles. I wouldn't recommend sex, drugs and insanity for everyone, but its always worked for me. Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime." (Ernest Hemingway) |

| mostly harmless Location: USA Posts: 1,284 | At MSRP of $80k, and considering $3 a gallon, the car is worth 26,667 gallons of gas. That amount of gas could take my 25 mpg mini SUV 666,675 miles. So I wouldn't want the car because of the fuel savings. I'd want it because it freaking hauls ass! Just gotta win a lottery or something... |
