[DML] Re: Electric DeloreanTechnology for sale

["Toby Peterson" <Toby@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gang - The technology for decent electric cars is closer than some 
might think.  A friend of mine is working on the car that is 
featured in the news article that can be found at the following 
link - http://tinyurl.com/pznp2  For a reasonable price, all things 
considered, these folks will have a pure electric car with a range 
of 250 miles, 0 - 60 in 4 (as in *four*) seconds, and a top speed 
circa 130mph.  I personally could live with that.  With the heavier 
weight of a DeLorean (as compared to the Tesla), the perfromance 
would be down a bit, but ... hey!  Style counts for something.  I 
could envision somebody producing a retrofit kit or a conversion 
program for exotic cars using this technology.

60 mph for any reasonable distance.
