You know what I mean! :wink: Proper, public charging that is next to the parking place to save trailing cables out of some old granny's living room window and across the pavement. Also I can imaging on some parts of my commute, if I knocked on a door asking to plug in I would either find no one in o...

I've seen the Bug-E, it is interesting and the sort of thing I am thinking of. I am very definate about what I need right now and that is half the problem, it limits me somewhat to what I would have. I know the portable genset isn't a good thing and it is also a balance of range over carrying the ex...

Couldn't find your reference, too much to read through. However, i wil take your word for it. I have been hoping for something like this in motor sport.

For not being a Smart it looks really good. I agree with you about some of the early commercial EVs, they do seem like they were designed by someone other then a designer or body stylist who has no concept of image. I wouldn't drive a G-Wiz whatever the spec but I would happily drive a Smart or othe...

Is it an adapted Smart or something that has a very close likeness? Visually I would have a wider track on the back wheels to fill the arches more otherwise it looks fine (as the Smart does). Personally I would really need a vehicle that can do 55-60mph for 80miles before I would buy one. My commute...
