Zap Xebra Sedan
The rumor that electric cars have been killed only applies to the GM variety. Other manufacturers are doing quite well with them, thank you very much, and the Zap Car is a good example of a quiet ride that is alive and well. With a top speed of 40 MPH and a range of 25 miles per charge, the Zap Xebra Sedan goes farther and faster than you might expect.
Even after factoring in the emissions created by coal-fueled electrical power plants, the Xebra Sedan still produces 98% fewer pollutants than a comparable gasoline-powered car. The single front wheel will get you lots of attention from curious onlookers, and even more so when four comfortable passengers exit your tiny Xebra without problem. The Zap has no tailpipe, just a place to plug in and recharge at any standard electrical outlet. The Zap Xebra sedan is as affordable as it is environmentally chic. MSRP starts at $11,700.
