I'd rather rock around in something like that than an insight or prius, lol.

This... Also, Why did they make it electric? They could have made a tiny aerodynamic gas-powered car and produced it, and it would sell like hotcakes.

Electric, not so much. Who wants a car with a 100-mile range? Plus, I think the article said it takes a 6 to 11 hour charge to completely recharge... damn.

You should create something like what you just posted. If you have a bright idea put it to good use.

Too lazy, no skillz, etc. Idea is up for grabs. Seems like its kind of obvious. People have been trying for a while to perfect aerodynamics, but still maintain a mainstream look. Screw it, make a two seater that is perfectly shaped for slicing through air, and you have a gas saving beast. Have you guys seen some of the "ecomodders" cars? they use solid hubcaps, underbody plates to direct air, etc. It adds up to like 5 MPG for just those alone.

When I checked out their website one time a while ago they were going to have several power options, like small fuel engine, hybrid or pure electric.

Yeah originally i tought it was going to be a hybrid but i guess they changed their minds. It was supposed to be a very small gas engine.
