please i am in need of information where i could run a short course for electric car technician,where by i could convert mechnical cars to electric

Isn’t there any electric car manufacturer in Malaysia? Please let me know if there’s any…

good guys you deserve to know that actually green science is far more developed, check the cars which run fuelless only by magnetic engines without any electricty =check perendev engines which could easily recharge the bateries if the vehicle has ones but not strongly needed. wait all of you and the editor on overunity.com

You missed the volvo c30 It will be a plug in hybrid.
This makes it pure electric if you never leave town and plug it in every night.

Hi, I would just like to put my 2 cents in and suggest you move some of the smaller low speed cars from the highway to the around town section. The top speed of some of these cars would not be adequate to drive in countries such as Australia and probably not New Zealand either so I would think the United States would be a problem too.
The top speeds are only just enough to keep up with traffic with no way of accelerating if required, also it would affect the distance whic by the way should probably be rated similar to speakers ie. Minimum distance, running distance, and max distance. What I mean here is distance at low speed as opposed to distance at top speed. How far can you go if at top speed continuously?
Just my thoughts. Thanks. I am looking forward to hopefully getting an EV or maybe finding out how to do a home conversion.

Hello,

I would like to present to you my system of air-conditioning and heating of all vehicles which recovers lost energy of the suspensions: http://translate.google.ca/translate?u=http://www.climaverna.com/&sl=fr&tl=en&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

This invention will be able to generate formidable economies of energies.

Dear sir,

I am willing to purchase elestric car in lowest
rate.please send your details to me.

The ZAP-X is nothing but a scam to convince naive investors into buying ZAP stock and get them stipped though constant dividends and stock degradation.

Every journalist that investigated ZAP (the company) has concluded that no R&D is done there. Their only non fictional products are the Xebra and an ATV, both made in some Chinese factory for a retail price of $3.000 and then rebranded as $10.000 cars in the US. Needless to say, build quality is atrocious.
Then, they throw at you the ZAP-X and the Alias to make you think they are a legitimate car company.

=====——> For that reason, I strongly propose to break the article into two seperate articles, “Cars you can buy now” and “Upcoming cars”

Dear Sir

I wanted to by MiniCAT Car in India please let me know where i can buy this car.

we want more power and more saveings….$

You may want to add the FUTI – one portuguese electric car. Website:http://www.futi.pt/en_default.asp

@Jeroen van Agt, you wrote:

“I did not add the Fisker car because I wanted to focus this list on 100% electric cars, no hybrid cars. Hybrid cars still need fossil fuels to charge their batteries.”

Jeroen you are wrong! The Fisker Karma and the Chevy Volt can both be driven in electric only mode within the range of their batteries, without burning any fossil fuels. The Fisker Karma has an electric only range of 80 km, which is longer than the Golf Golf CityStromer, Citroën Berlingo Electrique or the Subaru r1e which are included in your list. Both the Fisker Karma and the Chevy Volt can be driven as a 100% electric vehicle within their driving range and can be charged using pure renewable energy sources like wind-power, solar-power and hydro-power.

Until rapid charging stations for electric vehicles are common place it will be very difficult to rely 100% driving an electric only car. What happens when I want to drive the Suburu r1e from Bonn to Munchen? The trip would take days because of the limitation of the battery range. With a Fisker Karma the trip is no problem, burning a small amount of petrol after the first 80km of the trip.

You are absolutely right that the Toyota Prius and other similar hybrids should not be on the list. The small size of the battery pack results in a very limited electric range of about 1.5 km and the weak electric motor means the top electric speed is limited to 45 km/hr. Even a plug-in Prius will be limited by the speed and range of its weak hybrid design.

You confuse weak hybrids like the Toyota Prius with strong hybrids. Strong hybrids are in reality full electric vehicles with a generator included to extend the range, which is why GM coined the classification EREV or Extended Range Electric Vehicles. They can be driven for years without burning any fossil fuels depending on the driving habits of the owner.

Cars like the Fisker Karma and Chevy Volt are essential to the transformation from from fossil fuels to renewable energy. The problem today is no businesses or government will build charging stations for electric vehicles until there are many electric vehicles on the road but consumers will not buy electric vehicles because they will always be afraid that they will be stranded with no electricity and unable to get to their final destination. Rather than wasting time, the Fisker Karma and the Chevy Volt are essential to creating the demand to build the infrastructure to support 100% electric vehicles without regenerative capability.

First of all, there is a real hype in progress concerning EVs. Your website is no exception. From all the junk that is being perpetrated in the internet, only the following three will have a definite future. BEVs, FCs or a hybrid comprised of both types. ICE hybrid solutions would have been acceptable some thirty years ago but now i. a. w. the state of the art, they just belong to yesteryear or better -decades.
As for a BEV solution, the LMP-battery developed from DBM in Berlin, Germany is benchmark worldwide. I suggest that you implement a “Spam Filter” on your website to limit your “expose'” to practical applicability.

This is the single most interesting forum which I am certain will change the way our world is heading – moving away from being dependent on the shrinking supplies of fossil fuel. Most governments should encourage the initiative you have taken to popularize this movement. Keep up the good work. My thoughts are with you.

the site is really very informative. i wanted to know if any of these cars are available in india. the govt here puts 100 % duty on imported cars. also reve has launched a new model which is not included in the list. i dont know tha details. further i would like to suggest that a section on solar cars can be informative. also alongwith if we have some contact for trade enquiries. thanks.

HI
THANKS FOR THIS ARTICLE, VERY USEFUL FOR. WE WOULD BE GRATEFULL IF YOU UPDATE IT E.G. PRICES. CAN I ORDER I NEWSLETTER FROM ELECTRIC CARS TOPIC?

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME

ANDRIUS

india has done a remarkable work ,,producing very cheap electric cars,,reliability may b a problem,,but that will be solved with the passage of time,,,oil lobby is not letting this thing work very rapid otherwise we hav all tech etc to make it,,though it will become more perfect with the passage of time,,,,

beautiful datas collection

Just for keeping our Tesla Fan Level very high, setting on a side the Model S, with Roadster, Tesla hasn’t invented anything but integrating technology from other vendors, like bodies from Lotus, or powertrains from AC Propulsion. They have created an awesome showroom whith the Roadster.

With Model S, they have developed a car from scratch, bringing a loooooooot of technology to the car, and a set of very refreshing ideas and perspective for auto sector. What I am not quite sure if the powertrain has been developed or they went to AC Propulsion again (which is not bad, actually ACP is the Leader Brand in the world in such area). The production manager was a former Aston Martin manager.

You ought to add electric bikes. keep up the good work!

I am so intrested in electric cars so can you send me a weekly newsletter please

Where’s the Nissan Leaf?
