Tesla Roadster

I thought i'd throw in this image of the new Tesla Roadster developed by Tesla Motors. The reason why this car is great is that it is one of the first electric cars that doesnt look a rechargable battery pack with wheels (ie Prius hybrid etc...), its looks awseome and in fact is more than just a great design visually.

The car runs 100% on electricity, revs to 13,000rpm and accelerates to 100km/h in 3.9 seconds! And the best part in terms of sustainablity and economy is it does all this for around 2 cent per mile. Its all due to lightweight carbon fibre body parts and efficient electric engine which gives it an excellent power to weight ratio.

Now how cool is that.
