If electric cars had been made this sexy from the start we'd have a lot less Piruses on the road :thumbsdown:

My Ride: E60
If they made one and not too expensive, I'd buy one.... and use it for weekdays.. LOL
If BMW could use this technology and make cars... oh yeah!
Seems a little weird though... 120/220v charge of 10 minutes = 90 miles..? Yeah, right.
And it would be alot of fun creeping up on folks from the back without any noise... scary thought having that machine go down the road S--I-L-E-N-T!!!
