Full electric that goes 80mph for under $35,000
Dreaming of owning a Tesla Roadster but knowing how much they costs has been keeping down, have now fear. For the cool $35,000 (and a sam’s club membership) you can pickup a FULLY ELECTRIC SMART CAR! Plus a bonus trip to to witness a space shuttle launching! I know I have thought about a smart car but more if I was in New York City (this car could park anywhere).
This 2007 Hybrid Technologies Lithium-powered Smart Car is PERFECT for any city environment as well as short nearby communities. This smart car is a REAL CAR, top speed of 80mph with a 0 to 60 time of 7.1 seconds! Yes, there is the 6 to 8 hour charge time, but you can travel about 140 miles per charge! This is a great commuter car and with the money your saving in gas, you could almost buy 2!
Now if your a bit more into the exotic hybrids, you should take a look at the aptera, the famous 330mpg trik. This car does NOT have to go through rigorous testing like other 4 wheeled cars, because of its design, this vehicle falls under a motorcycle and WILL be street legal in all 50 states! It comes in 2 options, fully electric or plugin. They expect to start producing these in the next 12 months and you can reserve your name on the wait listing for only $500, fully refundable!
Although I enjoy my fun prius I may have to sell if and move to this futuristic badass car!

Great post (and great blog) - these little cars are extremely cool. I say it all the time, but I think we will see more and more of these coming on our roads. A ripple effect could and should follow. What do you think it would take? Seeing a neighbor driving one? Seeing one in a major film or popular TV show? I can absolutely see our family getting one sometime soon. That would be the next post: driving a Smart Car for a week (or more)!
