The weather on the last day of World Design Capital Helsinki's Design Weekend was sunny, but very cold: below minus 26°c degrees (-14° Fahrenheit) in the morning as can be seen from the video. Due to heavy snowfall of the previous days, Helsinki was covered with thick blanket of snow. The nine participating electric vehicles started their motors on a parking lot next to Helsinki Olympic Stadium and drove a route that consisted of some of the major streets in Helsinki with a detour to the shore of frozen Gulf of Finland. The procession ended to Senate Square at the front of Helsinki Cathedral. electrictraffic.fi Video production: www.nikola.fi

Here's an vehicle which I think will hit the market soon. I think this Hiriko is cool uncle-bugs.blogspot.com The CityCar or MIT CityCar is an urban all-electric concept car designed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Media Lab. The project was conceived by the late William J. Mitchell and his Smart Cities Research Group. It is now led by Kent Larson, Director of the Changing Places Research Group at the Media Lab. The project came into conception in 2003 under the support of General Motors and a team led by ]. The CityCar weighs less than 1000 pounds (450 kg), is 60% the size of a Smart Car, and its lithium-ion battery pack is expected to deliver the equivalent of 150 to 200 mpg-us (1.2 to 1.6 L/100 km; 180 to 240 mpg-imp) with no tailpipe emissions. Time Magazine selected the CityCar as one of the "Best Inventions of 2007. Hiriko, a Spanish consortium, is building prototypes for testing in Boston, Singapore, Taiwan and Florence by mid 2011, and commercialization is scheduled for late 2012. I hope MIT will be able to find a car company to bring it into the market soon. I don't mind buying one of this for myself. Best rdgs, Bugs Tan 7th Jan 2012

Toyota has set a new electric vehicle lap record at the Nürburgring Nordschleife. Driving a modified Radical, dubbed the EV P001, Jochen Krumbach completed the 20.8 km (12.9 mile) long course in 7 minutes and 47.794 seconds which buried the previous record of 9 minutes and 1.338 seconds that was set by the Peugeot EX1 concept. According to Rob Leupen, Toyota Motorsport's Director of Business Operations, "This is a very impressive achievement which really shows the huge potential for electric powertrains to deliver fast, exciting action on the race track. There's no doubt that electric motorsport can be every bit as thrilling as traditional racing and it was an amazing sensation to watch the TMG electric vehicle fly past on the Nordschleife, with only the sound of wind rushing past and tires squealing." As we have previously reported, the P001 features a 41.5 kWh lithium-ceramic battery which powers two electric motors that develop 381 PS (280 kW / 375 hp) and 800 Nm (590 Nm) of torque. This setup enables the 970 kg (2138 lb) car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.9 seconds and hit a top speed of 260 km/h (162 mph).

Electric vehicles are hitting the streets in larger numbers, led by models like the Nissan Leaf and Chevrolet Volt. By one estimate, there could be more than 600000 EVs on US roads by 2014, but that's a speck in the rear-view mirror compared to the roughly 140 million passenger cars Americans already drive. This week, energyNOW! explores the state of electric vehicles in America today: are they accelerating into the fast lane, or could they run out of juice in the race against internal-combustion cars? energyNOW! Spotlight: Growing Pains for Electric Vehicle Manufacturers Electric vehicles hold the promise of reducing both emissions and our dependence on foreign oil. EV supporters say the electric car is a business opportunity unrivaled since we got off the horse. But many potential EV owners are concerned about the higher price of electric cars and their limited range, compared to gasoline-fueled models. Correspondent Lee Patrick Sullivan looks at the independent carmakers and big auto companies trying to charge up the transition to EVs and convince American drivers that going electric is really worth it. Revenge of the Electric Car Virtually all of the electric vehicle industry's history has been documented by environmentalist filmmaker Chris Paine. His 2006 documentary "Who Killed the Electric Car" accused US automakers of crushing EV development in the 1990s. Now, his new film, "The Revenge of the Electric Car," says the industry has turned a corner and brought EVs <b>...</b>

Launched exclusively for Korean market in December 2011, All-new Ray is the first EV in the world to be assembled on the same production lines with its regular combustion-engine sibling. Powered by a 50kW electric motor and advanced 16.4kWh lithium-ion polymer batteries, EV Ray can run up to 86 miles on a single charge. Plus, using a 220V outlet, the battery only needs six hours to be fully charged on "slow charge" mode, and 25 minutes on "fast charge" mode. The EV model's 167 Nm of torque ensure ample power and responsive performance, with a top speed of up to 81 miles per hour. The automatic transmission offers drivers the choice of two modes -- "E," (eco), which optimizes the delivery of torque for battery efficiency, or "B" (brake), which maximizes braking power when driving downhill, on highways or on mountain roads. With the same striking exterior styling, the Ray EV distinguishes itself from its gasoline sibling by a unique instrument cluster that displays electric motor operation, battery status and distance to recharge. Also, EV-specific navigation system on a 7-inch screen provides crucial information for EV drivers, such as the nearest locations of slow/fast recharging stations or reachable destinations within battery limit.

To eliminate Quebec's debt would require a special loan to buyers of electric vehicles. Grants of up to 8000 dollars for electric cars and 1000 dollars for the installation of charging stations are currently available. Instead of emptying our pockets for oil companies, our money would go back to Hydro Quebec and we could fund education and the health system. Of course, paying back our debt would be a good idea. If we invest in sustainable development and focus on efficiency rather than short term profit, we lose money at first, but if we invest in something durable, you can expect a good result.

"I don't know if I could have a car without a bed in it." San Francisco Jay Nelson has put beds into nearly every vehicle he's ever owned, including a semi-totalled Honda Civic (bought for $200) and a tiny rowboat (found on craigslist). He's even made a moped into a camper, but his most impressive podmobile is the electric camper bike he built from scratch using parts "you can find at a hardware store". He bought the PVC pipe chassis online, along with an electric motor (he discarded his initial pedal-powered design because of the San Francisco hills) and began to build the vehicle in his driveway. He calls his tiny mobile home the Golden Gate and with an electric motor range of 10 miles, it can go basically anywhere within San Francisco (7 x 7 square miles) at a top speed of 20mph.
