2006 Commendation For Global Warming Prevention Activity Award? Wow. So this car has managed to effect the activities of the sun and somehow managed to stave of the impact of El Nina? Then surely we should all be driving them and never mind that many economies produce the electricity that powers it using fossil fuels...

in the usa the production of electricty is very efficient, although coal may not be the cleanest burning fuel in the world. on the upside the usa has coal, we don't have to buy it from abroad. regarding the car, 50 miles?!?! you want me to get excited about a car with the range of a golf cart with a higher top speed?

wow "cost no more than USD 2" I know this is a typo... but damn that would be sweet. As to the car, it's more attractive then any other super small car I have seen. If the price came in anywhere between $2000-$10000. I would probably ditch my car. I don't drive far, and I hate paying $60 a tank. Also, with the abundance of electrical outputs for car block heaters in my city, they are the equivalent to hundreds of thousands of free gas stations.

I've driven the gasoline powered car in Japan and it is a great car. The Japanese have really figured out how to design large space in a small package.
