I say stick with the golf cart look. I think it is quite fetching, and probably sexier than whatever egg-shaped atrocity it will end up being. #gordonmurray
I have the greatest respect for this guy and I have no doubt that he is an excellent engineer. But producing a car that actually gets manufactured is a process of politics and economics more than engineering. So I will wait patiently until I actually see some hardware on the road... at a reasonable price. Go Gordon! #gordonmurray
"Nissan has developed a sophisticated IT system for its zero-emission EVs, connecting the vehicle's on-board transmitting unit to a global data centre*2 to support EV driving 24 hours 7 days a week."
So, will I be getting emails letting me know my vehicle will be unavailable from 6am to noon Saturday for server maintenance?
@layabout returns: Yeah, I have to agree with you there. It's an existing car with a transplanted electric pipe-dream. I mean, powerplant. It's good for nothing but getting some more press from outfits like Jalopnik.
@layabout returns: My mind is playing tricks on me. When they brought it to the states a few years ago, I recognized it as a Renault, but didn't realize it was an entirely new name.

Oh it's my favorite British peer, Lord Drayson. Here's what he drives to work.
Did I also mention that he's blind in one eye and his driving partner is named Jonny Cocker?
Yeah. Awesome. #gordonmurray

Let Nissan play. Maybe they'll come up with something interesting.

Actually I'm serious. They sell it at Booster Juice up here, and it's quite yummy, particularly when followed with a Mango Hurricane.
Hmm. Where are my keys?

Isn't it also the Renault Versa in Europe? Or did they change the name over there?
