I had heard and read about the amazing electric car from California -- zero emissions, instant torque, and blistering fast speed. It's the guilt-free green speedster. There was no way I was going to miss the chance. Walking into the Tesla showroom in L.A., I was surprised at how small the roadster looked. It's built with Lotus and while there's a Lotus look to it, only 7 percent of... Full article...

Certainly, the two-wheeler by Honda practically outdoes its much larger 4-wheeled relative, more than doubling the fortwo’s EPA mileage figures. Again, it’s always difficult to contrast the attributes of a scooter with those of a car. It takes a lot of commitment to opt for open-air riding on the back of a little scooter in... Full article...
