Zero-60 in 3.1 Seconds, Batteries Included
FloatsomNJetsom writes "Popular Mechanics has a very cool video and report about test-driving Hybrid Technologies' L1X-75, a battery powered, 600-hp, carbon-fiber roadster that pulls zero-60 in about 3.1 seconds, and tops out at 175 mph. Of course, there are few creature comforts inside, but that's mainly because the car's 200 mile range is meant for the track, not the road. Nonetheless, Popular Mechanics takes the car for a spin up 10th Avenue in NYC. Oh, and the car recharges via a 110 outlet. They also test-drove Ford's HySeries Edge, a hydrogen fuel-cell powered, plug-in series hybrid that, unlike the L1X-75, is unfortunately at least 10 years away from production and nearly 100 mph slower."
Still looking for the "maximize" button when your Mac has "zoom" instead? Take the hint, switcheurs: If you can't cope with seeing more than one window at a time, GTFO of our platform. The Mac wasn't designed for one-track minds.
everyone = Americans.
Why do Americans talk about cars when they make the worst cars in the world, have incredibly low speed limits, drive autos and are actually impressed by cup holders and Hummers?
