Anyway...that is not what this post is about. This is about "REVA, The electriCity Car". India's version of the electric car. It has been getting a lot of press. It attracted a $20 million venture capital investment recently. Forbes calls it an "exotic car".
I am a little embarrassed to know about all this, this late.
The company claims that it can go upto 80KM on a single charge. The operational cost is said to be 1/10th that of a conventional Petrol (Gasoline) car. Dealer and service networks available in Bangalore, Delhi, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune.Can this be India's answer to zero emission and oil independence?
Here is a thought.....What if the car comes with a collapsible solar cell array? Even better if the car is painted with embedded solar cells. Plug into the Sun when you are parked.
