why so long? Years not the car.

why so long? Car not the years.

Putting the "envioromentally friendly" aspect of it all aside and what not....

It looks like dog balls.

clever. the comments not the car design

edit: also i remember hearing about a diesel bmw i think which gets like 1500km to the tank or something wacky...

yeh, not my cup of tea to be honest. I'd much prefer a sporty Electric Vehicle with the new Li-Ion batteries. EV's are a lot less complicated and you can recharge at home.

why the hell do all these environmentally friendly cars look like something from a sci-fi movie about the future? I see those movies and think to myself f*** those cars are ugly I hope I don't ever end up driving something that looks like that.

whoop, what sort of car do you think looks good then?

it looks like a shoe

any kind of normal ordinary car, not some space age s***ter that's mostly made of glass & looks like it should glide through the stratosphere. falcon/commodore/skyline/180sx/etc NORMAL cars.

Have you seen the new Skyline, I'd rather this Honda.

it's ok to be the minority

looks fine to me in that side shot, although the rear view from the drivers seat might be a bit lacking

does it look anything like a trans am firebird or lamborghini countach?

FAIL!

the panels look alittle too straight wouldnt you agree Jim?

Good answer whoop, I just wanted to see if you were anti-car person or just didn't like this one :D

AHAHA, I hate it also, looks poo, probably looks worse then the lamborghini countach.

it looks s***.

electric/hydrogen cars whats the point when we still use oil/coal to make the electricity and hydrogen

^ I've been googling the last few wks on this topic and the answer to your question is that a Electric Vehicle recharging from a coal powerstation is much more efficient than a modern 4 cyclinder vehicle.

Also home solar systems like the 'sunball' are getting cheaper all the time. Therefore your roof could put energy back into the grid to offset what your E.V takes out. Basically u are using the grid as a battery. I know this because ppl are doing it right NOW!.

On another note its alot easier to make the 'grid' more efficient with new Coal, Bio, Wind, Solar, Tidal, Hydo, Geothermal and Nuclear energy sources , than it is to make Australia's current fleet of 15 million or so vehicles.

Personally, I feel Hydrogen powered vehicles are not as good as the new generation of EV's or Hybrid's. Hydrogen Fuel Cell vehicles are still very complicated and only offer slightly better performance and economy. Whereas high performance EV's and new Flex fuel/Plugin Hybrids are here now.

a fuel cell car recharged by a coal fired station won't be more economical than a 4 cyl car

I dont get it.......

i think maxe is saying he saw a lot of the back of my car

Nup, still don't get it. :)

soz slaps forhead i dont see how spendin heaps of time and energy to find more efficent ways to sustain our huge usage of power makes sence at all. how about um just useing less power to start with.

^ Hey, Thats cool!

Lets all go back to the stone age and ride horses and stuff!

That looks awesome! The best yet!

Uhh ...Their purposely designed to be futuristic to catch attention and stand out. Duh.

ok awesum, you start by not using the internets

i wouldnt mind going back to riding horses, waving around my lassoo and keeping my beef jerky under the saddle

I think that car looks pretty cool

<3 beef jerkey

They need to put the technology into the body of the s2000.
