Electric Car QUICKER THAN A FERRARI ENZO 0-60 3.07 sec!
This electric car can do 0-60 3.07 sec!
Only about 15% of the energy from the fuel you put in your tank gets used to move your car down the road or run useful accessories, such as air conditioning. The rest of the energy is lost to engine and driveline inefficiencies and idling. Therefore, the potential to improve fuel efficiency with advanced technologies is enormous. With an Electric Car it costs just .00 per 100kms with MUCH more performance than with petrol at .00 per 100kms. Electric Car FASTER THAN A FERRARI ENZO 0-60 3.07 sec!

pssh id just got with the ariel atom for 25,000 check that beast out

@hawkSS454 its perfectly safe, if not more so as it wont crumple into your legs (assuming you don’t hit a brick wall) the only thing it doesn’t do is keep the rain and the cold out.

Looks alot like an ariel atom

so is it faster than the original atom?

@TheBarSoldier Look on JayLenosGarage he’s got a Baker Electric from the start of the 20th century. Electric, Petrol and Steam cars used to be about equal in numbers back then until the Model T came along.

top speed?

this is possible because electric engines have a flat torque curve where combustion engines do not.

Between 1832-1839, Robert Anderson invented the first crude electric carriage. A small-scale electric car was designed by Prof-Stratingh of Groningen, and built by Christopher Becker in 1835. More practical EV’s were invented by Thomas Davenport and Scotsmen Robert Davidson +- 1842. Both were the first to use non-rechargeable electric cells. Gaston Plante invented a better battery in 1865 and Camille Faure improved the storage battery in 1881. This battery paved the way for EV’s to flourish.

Electric cars and ethanol cars were developed at the same time as petrol (gasoline) cars (if not first).

@Argoon1981 its not that it has more torque its that its all there ready to use in a petrol engine in needs to build up
By Argoon1981 on Jun 11, 2010 | Reply
Sorry but no, electric cars are faster because they have more torque even on a small motor and they have it at ZERO rpm, all they need is a longer lasting battery and petrol engines are history.
FYI Petrol engines have litle room for improvement in the motor (taking out turbos or nitro), all they are trying now is making better oils to reduce friction on the pistons (electric cars don’t need oil) or using less weight, but that also works and well for E cars.

@kylestark11 AC Propulsion but it costs $25,000 with the inverter, IF they’d sell it to you. Same motor as used in the E-Mini and Tesla Roadster.

@TheBarSoldier and electric motors are not engines there lol. And everyone knows the global warming this is a big hoax to get $

@TheBarSoldier well i am not sure if there were around exactly when they started building cars but they did have them in the 1850′s look it up on wikipedia
By TheBarSoldier on Jun 11, 2010 | Reply
@inagod: Electric cars have not been around since they started building cars. Do you think electric engines would have had this much development if it werent for the Global warming crisis? The whole reason this development has taken place is due to the fact that car companies want to appear green in turn making the general public feel like they are buying a car from a company that appears to care about the environment thus increasing sales. You know what they call that? Greed.

@inagod I think youre missing the point. Read through the comments, his not disputing the fact that your precious electric engines are more efficient. His simply stating that its obvious in generations to come electric motors will continue to improve dramatically but purely out of necessity not choice. Theres also weight issue to consider. An Ariel Atom running gas weighs 450kgs as opposed to the electrics 700kgs still away off yet bud.

@roscobeach69 electric motors been around since when they started building cars. Just oil companies are greedy
