We have talked about the green and awesome Tesla Roadster a lot in the past. This is easily the coolest of the EVs for me since looks like a sports car, had loads of performance, and promises a long driving range with no stops at the pump. Tesla has announced that its Roadster fleet has hit a major milestone.
Tesla has announced that Roadsters have now driven 10 million miles to date. The cars are in 30 different counties, have altogether saved 500,000 gallons of fuel, and prevented 5.3 million pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere.
Tesla’s little Roadster can hit 60 mph in 3.7 seconds and promises a driving range of 245 miles on a charge. This is an awesome little car and Tesla has a larger car coming as well called the Model S. The model S is a sedan with more seating for passengers.

Veritas RSIII Roadster Hybrid world’s fatest plug-in Hybrid.
Vermot AG unleashed Veritas RS III Roadster a year ago, and now the tiny sports car manufacturer is adding hybrid drive to its V10-powered retro sled. It’s not quite hot hybrid we’ve ever seen, Porsche 918 RSR funny still believes that the crown, but Veritas RSIII Roadster Hybrid is certainly not squeaky suburban. This is a small open-top racer 507HP V10 BMW, which is associated with 105kW engine front-wheel spin characteristics. It is also the location of Porsche, again relying on the KERS flywheel to generate electricity that is stored in a lithium-ion battery that can be charged individually to generate. A car can actually hobble around for up to 31 miles on power from the only front-engine, but when both sources are called orientation sled gets 62 miles per hour 3.1 seconds faster than the 911 Turbo S, and it will keep on going until the speedometer hits 205 – or whatever the car hits the property. No word on price or availability, but there is a version of the roof came this summer, and all-electric models, due in 2013.

The best selling hybrid in the world is the Toyota Prius. The green vehicle has been on the market since 1997 and has sold millions of units globally. Toyota is expanding the Prius family with a new version called the Prius Plus. The Plus has three-row seating in some models.
The Prius Plus will be the first Prius to use lithium ion battery packs. The catch is that the Plus will only get the lithium ion batteries in the Japanese market. The car will get the old nickel-metal hydride batteries in the US that are heavier and used in the current Prius vehicles.
The Japanese Prius Plus cars are getting the lithium batteries to open up more interior space. Toyota has noted that the three-row seating is more appealing to the Japanese market. The Plus with the lithium ion batteries will sell for the equivalent of $36,590 in Japan with a version using standard batteries starting at $28,660.

Now, Cars that can you can drive with your thoughts, German researchers made this possible.
Imagine you could drive your car using only your thoughts. German researchers have just made that possible — and they have the video to prove it. Mind reading Emotive EPOC headset can not be changed the face of video games, but it seems it was proved that more than enough for a team of researchers from Germany, who used it as a major component in their project marrow driver. Yes, it’s mind-controlled car and after a little training, it seems pretty well done – albeit with a slight delay, which makes any real world testing is worse than the idea it already was. Interestingly, this latest attempt to actually be a few previous attempts to fully autonomous vehicles by the same group of researchers from the Free University of Berlin, and they say that the two will eventually be merged at some point in the distant future – for example, taxi able to behave, but they respond to the thoughts of its passengers. There is a video for these prove after a short break.

Masdar City is not really a city just yet (more like a collection of a few buildings, with mostly researchers and students living there), and therefore the pods only go on one route with a stop at each end (about 1600 meters round-trip).
The world’s first trackless Personal Transportation System (PRT). Nothing says ‘the future’ quite like auto-pods, except maybe flying cars, but those aren’t here yet. Maybe the driver pods Masdar City is not as many stops as you have in mind the metro, but is essentially equivalent to the usefulness of a metro station in Pyongyang. And much less waste of energy to boot. If you remember, this driver pods were planned years ago, and while a few ambitions constrained by the economic crisis has not stopped students and engineers from the pods of 2getthere’s, magnets, and fiber-optic systems at two stops transmission system to the university. While they hold the students fall between a pair of points, which is 800 meters from each other, traveling 15 miles per hour and intimidation of anyone who dares to step inside. As for the future? Jetsons only know, but you can look at the video after the break.
Land Rover’s at 2011 Geneva Motor Show will establish one of the most exciting in the brand’s history.
Land Rover shows its greenest models ever at 2011 Geneva Motor Show. You know that electric cars are in the upper part, where even the worst 4×4 to start looking for a little more spark to their production and storage of energy. Land Rover has announced that it will be a demo – there are several working versions – development of prototypes for the Geneva Motor Show next month, we will discuss the exhibition that the diesel engine if he could do with some added firepower electric. Design RANGE_END based on Range Rover Sport and the 3.0-liter V6 is the kernel, but the new car can go a full 20 miles on pure electric charge and advertise to the 690-mile range at all. Let’s hope that the show was at Geneva enough interest in making RANGE_END Land Rover in a commercial reality.

We heard last summer that Porsche had plans to test an electric incarnation of its classic Boxster and now Porsche unveils electric roadster.
Nissan ESFLOW with the roof line, inspired by modern Z car and long hood reminiscent of the original 240Z – to stimulate our domestic Gearhead. The planned debut at Geneva Motor Show in early March, the Coupe is due to children’s dreams and fantasies double electric motors driving the rear wheels and the inhabitants of a fictional country to 000-100 km / h (0-62mph for us Yanks) in less than five seconds. If ESFLOW where Nissan launches its EV designs – the magazine is really not so beautiful – we all have, but do not expect to see on the road at any time when it is just a concept after all.
The maximum speed of 18 miles per hour and the range of 15 miles? Charges for two hours? No, this is not the future of transportation, we say that it is a toy
Toy Audi, of all places. The company must be electrically driven and the other half-scale replica of Auto Union Type C Grand Prix racing since the late 1930′s and is done under the guise of e-electrons, using the pseudonym of an adult line of ESS such as the lush Spyder E-electrons. This is for kids of all ages – as long as it’s shorter than 5’11”and it will be shown at the International Toy Fair in Nuremberg. Currently, we are not talking about the plan to the price of produce as Audi did, but he is certainly one of those “if you have to ask” thing – The body is made entirely of carbon fiber, and that stuff is not cheap.

As we know that you are vigilant enough not to trust your car wireless security system, but many people, as a convenience to clean metal keys and get in their vehicles with a bit of Bond-style swagger.
A few weeks ago we learned that the U.S. will be 310 CHAdeMO fast charging stations, 480V AC or DC converters that can be Nissan Leaf up to 80 percent charge to get in 30 minutes to get.
Most of them are designed for large urban areas, but we were intrigued to find that Washington state is about two or three of them are stuck in the country, 120 miles on the scenic side of Route 2 that runs over the Cascade Mountains. It is popular with tourists and electric vehicles becoming more popular in this area, even more so with the best transport tourists to enjoy the trip. For full coverage hit the source link below.
