A Stanford University research team has designed a high-efficiency charging system that uses magnetic fields to wirelessly transmit large electric currents between metal coils placed several feet apart. The long-term goal of the research is to develop an all-electric highway that wirelessly charges cars and trucks as they cruise down the road.

A French environmentalist and adventurer has embarked on a five thousand - kilometre journey driving an electric car. The journey, the first of its kind in Africa, is meant to highlight the possibility of using electric cars on the continent and campaign against the pollution caused by petrol-fueled cars.---- the journey from Nairobi to Johannesburg is going to take the driver, Xavier Chevron, 2 months; the main challenge, finding sources to charge his vehicle. Andrew Ochieng was with the driver and his car, and filed the following report.

This is because owners don't need a license to drive an electric vehicle, or EV, as it's currently not classified as a car in China. And commuters can use the city's bike lanes to dodge the notorious traffic congestions. It's a convenient mode of transport for many. [Li Hongming, Teacher]: "This kind of vehicle is smaller than a gas car. You don't need to sit in traffic jams. It saves time, and it doesn't need gas, which is quite expensive, so you can save money." The hooded three-wheel EV cruises at a maximum speed of about 19 miles an hour. It uses a removable battery that can be charged from a regular electrical socket at home. EV retailers say sales are booming. [Feng Luya, Shop Owner] "Now each month we can sell 50 to 80 vehicles. The customers say they're really useful." The price of a three-wheel EV ranges from $600 to $1500—making it highly affordable. Cheaper, slower-speed EVs sell faster than the high-speed models. Even the highly state-subsidized BYD E6 high-speed model still costs about $60000. This is way above what most city dwellers can afford. In rural China, farmers prefer the larger four-wheeled EVs with a top speed of 30 miles an hour. Last year, the Shandong Shifeng Group—a manufacturer of the slow-speed four-wheel EVs—sold 70000 <b>...</b>

The weather on the last day of World Design Capital Helsinki's Design Weekend was sunny, but very cold: below minus 26°c degrees (-14° Fahrenheit) in the morning as can be seen from the video. Due to heavy snowfall of the previous days, Helsinki was covered with thick blanket of snow. The nine participating electric vehicles started their motors on a parking lot next to Helsinki Olympic Stadium and drove a route that consisted of some of the major streets in Helsinki with a detour to the shore of frozen Gulf of Finland. The procession ended to Senate Square at the front of Helsinki Cathedral. electrictraffic.fi Video production: www.nikola.fi

Toyota has set a new electric vehicle lap record at the Nürburgring Nordschleife. Driving a modified Radical, dubbed the EV P001, Jochen Krumbach completed the 20.8 km (12.9 mile) long course in 7 minutes and 47.794 seconds which buried the previous record of 9 minutes and 1.338 seconds that was set by the Peugeot EX1 concept. According to Rob Leupen, Toyota Motorsport's Director of Business Operations, "This is a very impressive achievement which really shows the huge potential for electric powertrains to deliver fast, exciting action on the race track. There's no doubt that electric motorsport can be every bit as thrilling as traditional racing and it was an amazing sensation to watch the TMG electric vehicle fly past on the Nordschleife, with only the sound of wind rushing past and tires squealing." As we have previously reported, the P001 features a 41.5 kWh lithium-ceramic battery which powers two electric motors that develop 381 PS (280 kW / 375 hp) and 800 Nm (590 Nm) of torque. This setup enables the 970 kg (2138 lb) car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.9 seconds and hit a top speed of 260 km/h (162 mph).

Working with Adopt a Charger to accelerate the widespread acceptance of electric vehicles to address environmental concerns, Nissan North America has "adopted" 15 electric vehicle chargers in California. Through the relationship, Nissan has installed and will maintain three Aerovironment Level 2 chargers at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). In San Francisco, at the Music Concourse Garage in Golden Gate Park, Nissan sponsored four Level 2 chargers and an additional eight 120v Level 1 outlets. The chargers are free to the public and provide convenient charging opportunities in these two high-traffic locations.

Here's an vehicle which I think will hit the market soon. I think this Hiriko is cool uncle-bugs.blogspot.com The CityCar or MIT CityCar is an urban all-electric concept car designed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Media Lab. The project was conceived by the late William J. Mitchell and his Smart Cities Research Group. It is now led by Kent Larson, Director of the Changing Places Research Group at the Media Lab. The project came into conception in 2003 under the support of General Motors and a team led by ]. The CityCar weighs less than 1000 pounds (450 kg), is 60% the size of a Smart Car, and its lithium-ion battery pack is expected to deliver the equivalent of 150 to 200 mpg-us (1.2 to 1.6 L/100 km; 180 to 240 mpg-imp) with no tailpipe emissions. Time Magazine selected the CityCar as one of the "Best Inventions of 2007. Hiriko, a Spanish consortium, is building prototypes for testing in Boston, Singapore, Taiwan and Florence by mid 2011, and commercialization is scheduled for late 2012. I hope MIT will be able to find a car company to bring it into the market soon. I don't mind buying one of this for myself. Best rdgs, Bugs Tan 7th Jan 2012

Electric vehicles hold the promise of reducing both emissions and our dependence on foreign oil. EV supporters say the electric car is a business opportunity unrivaled since we got off the horse. But many potential EV owners are concerned about the higher price of electric cars and their limited range, compared to gasoline-fueled models. Correspondent Lee Patrick Sullivan looks at the independent carmakers and big auto companies trying to charge up the transition to EVs and convince American drivers that going electric is really worth it.

Launched exclusively for Korean market in December 2011, All-new Ray is the first EV in the world to be assembled on the same production lines with its regular combustion-engine sibling. Powered by a 50kW electric motor and advanced 16.4kWh lithium-ion polymer batteries, EV Ray can run up to 86 miles on a single charge. Plus, using a 220V outlet, the battery only needs six hours to be fully charged on "slow charge" mode, and 25 minutes on "fast charge" mode. The EV model's 167 Nm of torque ensure ample power and responsive performance, with a top speed of up to 81 miles per hour. The automatic transmission offers drivers the choice of two modes -- "E," (eco), which optimizes the delivery of torque for battery efficiency, or "B" (brake), which maximizes braking power when driving downhill, on highways or on mountain roads. With the same striking exterior styling, the Ray EV distinguishes itself from its gasoline sibling by a unique instrument cluster that displays electric motor operation, battery status and distance to recharge. Also, EV-specific navigation system on a 7-inch screen provides crucial information for EV drivers, such as the nearest locations of slow/fast recharging stations or reachable destinations within battery limit.
