ELECTRIC - bikes scooters cars

To be honest, I began to despair of things ever getting glamorous on the electric car front. The models out there at the moment are great. But they're utilitarian vehicles, designed to do a job. It seemed that the technology was stopping the electric car from moving to the next level. Well, it just moved to that next level - and beyond. Porsche has unveiled its prototype all electric 911.
