It looks like there's a lot of plastic in that baby. The oil companies will love it.

I thought it said it's going to be available next year for around $30,000. A lot of these electric cars seem more like motorcycles with a shell than practical transportation, but it's good that there's R&D being done in that area. With the new battery and electric motor technologies, there's no reason electric cars couldn't be used on a daily basis for running around town.

I've been thinking about one of those Smart Cars. Do you know anything about them?
