Nissan Pivo 2
admin 
The new Nissan Pivo 2 EV concept car looks like it came out of a Jetson’s cartoon. Coming from Nissan you have to take it somewhat seriously considering that they are one of the ‘Big 3′ in Japan. Although this car doesn’t look like it will attract much attention from the middle america type, it will certainly draw attention from people living in overcrowded metro areas like Los Angeles, Chicago or New York City.
The car has a unique ability to revolve the cabin 360 degrees making difficult parking a thing of the past. Pivo is packed with all sorts of techie goodies such as a front and rear camera that is meshed together so you can see everything in a bird’s eye view.

TZero from AC Propulsion
Made from thousands of laptop batteries the tzero can take down any street car off the line. Unfortunately this car is not slated for production and is just a concept and development vehicle.

Zenn 2.22
This neighborhood vehicle is a neat vehicle for it’s niche area. This car will most likely never meet the needs of the daily commuter. For uses like meter maids, campu university cars, large factory complexes and other similar uses this car certainly fits the bill. Of course the price will need to come down a bit but in time as Zenn’s production level increases and more competitive companies surface this will likely happen.

Wrightspeed X1
As far as speed is concerned the Wrightspeed X1 is still the top contender of any electric vehicle that exists today on the road. Ian Wright didn’t slouch when he put the nuts and bolts of this EV hot rod together. With a lithium ion battery costing $40K alone this car means serious business. It will put a grin on your face that will be difficult to remove as you mop the floor with any production road car on the road today (except the Bugatti veyron).

Tesla Roadster
The Tesla roadster is something everyone is anxious to experience first hand. We’ve seen the videos and now we want to see the car. Although a bit pricey for the average consumer this car is priced for people who would normally be purchasing a mercedes or porsche. Regardless this automobile is a gem that is history in the making. A superfast car and one of the first EV’s to reach market (We’re not counting the golf carts)
