Interesting little electric car.

I like the startup

Charging. I wonder what happens if it's in hard rain, probably a drain tube under that flap.

Not my thing but I wonder what the range is.

The batteries explode?

What's the sport version called? The "FigLEAF?"

Until depleted charge? Sounds about right. Probably just indicating something like "miles till empty" and showing the best route to take to go the furthest on that charge.

Dude remember what I said before...we want as many people to buy eletrics and hybrids so there'll be plenty of oil left for gas powered sports coupes.

Hey, I'm all cool with that. Even more when the batteries asplode and they die. More gas and Obamanomics money for me.

It doesn't look very functional (size-wise) as far as either cargo, or passengers...

I'm biased, but I'd rather have a Volt.

They totally jacked Honda civic's digital speedo.
