American Electric Cars
American Electric Cars

Cruising at 70 mph, the wind in your hair? That’s so Old School. Get Kurrent. Slow down, simplify. And, yeah, still have the power to turn heads wherever you go.

The Kurrent is the NV (neighborhood vehicle) that’s determined to define the category.

Designed in Italy and built in the US, it’s spunky, chic and just plain smart. The American interpretation of the European micro car.

Kurrent costs less than 2¢ per mile to operate. To charge it up, simply unplug your toaster and plug in Kurrent. Before you know it, you’re good to go. read more - American Electric Cars

Cammuter Electric Cars

Commuter Electric CarsThe revolutionary commuter vehicle that combines the speed and agility of a motorcycle with the security and comfort of a high-performance sports car.

The Tango's ability to maneuver through traffic is second to none.

Like a motorcycle, it can change lanes to gain advantage in traffic better than any car in history. Unlike a motorcycle, it is safe, dry, climate controlled, and can securely carry a reasonable amount of cargo. Where lane splitting is permitted (i.e., driving between lanes of stopped or slow-moving traffic), such as California, Europe, and Asia, the advantage can be staggering. In extremely heavy traffic, a Tango or motorcycle can travel in 20 seconds the distance that cars travel in 20 minutes. read more - Commuter Electric Cars

The design is based on easily available materials and practical solutions, with little emphasis on additional equipment and fancy extras. Less parts – less can break down.

In 2005 the newly developed 6th generation of Kewet – the Buddy – received a homologation according to EC directives. Technology, as well as design, is developed in accordance with the many years of user-experience, both from private use and fleets, and from extreme coldness (Norway) to extremely hot weather (Thailand). read more - Elbil-Norge Electric Cars

Nissan Leaf Electric Car

Nissan Leaf Electric CarMeet the Nissan Leaf.  100% Electric Car. Zero Emissions.

Nissan Leaf is Nissan’s first zero-emission electric car, entering select markets in 2010 and launching globally, including Canada, in 2012. 

Don't confuse it with a hybrid or any other type of gas-powered, eco-friendly vehicle. This is electric – 100%. That means it burns zero gas and produces zero emissions. But this is no golf-cart.

Off the line, Nissan Leaf performs like a V6. Plus, there’s room for five, and it comes with all the quality, reliability and versatility you’ve come to expect from Nissan cars.

  • Zero tailpipe emissions
  • 100% electric – no gas required
  • Competitively priced
  • Speeds up to 140 km/hr
  • Five passengers, five doors
  • Advanced airbags, premium audio, Nissan navigation system, and more

Perhaps more important than the Leaf's top speed are its battery's charging characteristics. In this regard, the car's under-floor mounted assembly of 48 lithium ion modules (each laptop-sized module is comprised of four magazine-sized cells) offers a number of charging strategies.

To yield a full charge, a 200-volt, single-phase AC charger takes less than eight hours, and topping off the battery from a 100 volt single-phase standard home wall outlet will take somewhere around twice that time, so prospective Leafmakers would do well to get 220 volt hookup like their clothes dryer uses out in their garage.
