Don’t buy a new electric car, convert your old one to electric
Aug 27th
David Noon on Maui, Hawaii converts cars (anything from Hummers to Isuzus to 1950s Studebakers) to run on biodiesel. Noon, of Maui EVs, is the only one in Hawaii providing such a service. He’s outfitting a Ford Ranger XLT for $17,000. That’s enough for a used car, but for an electric car, you can make that money back in no time.
Tesla Releases Roadster 2.5, Shows Off Innovations
Jul 1st
Just 2 days after its IPO, Tesla’s released a new roadster. Its called the Tesla Roadster 2.5 (3.0 in the offing this fall?) and it packs a lot of technology within its full carbon fiber body. If 0-60 mph in 3.7seconds blows your mind away, consider this. The new Tesla Roadster 2.5 packs the industry’s most advanced battery pack. One charge takes you about 245 miles before you have to find a plug point again. All this with zero* emission. Tesla’s making sure they show off this beautiful creature just like a public company must. All the innovations that have gone into the car are generously showed off on their website. Some beautiful pictures of the car after the break.
