The amazing Aero EV

January 27, 2009

aero ev profile 290x179Without any doubt Shelby Super Cars’ Aero EV is now the “world’s fastest production electric car”.
From under the hood the silent All-Electric Scalable Powertrain (AESP) produces 1000 horsepower and 800 lb-ft of torque will bring the Aero EV from 0 to 60 in just 2.5 seconds at a 208mph (335 km/h) top speed.

We can talk about speed when it comes to battery charging also: the 150-220 mile battery can be refilled in just 10 minutes, from a 220V service thanks to what SSC calls its “Charge on the Run” onboard charging system.
Ultimate Aero EV should hit the streets somewhere around June and the price is still an enigma.

Can I have one, pleeeaseee???

January 23, 2009

PD*26408442If someday a metallic voice from some weird moving box tells you to “stay still” or “do not move”, you’d better be good and listen to it.

The Tmsuk T-34 is a small robot (or a remote-controller car) equipped with a net launcher. The Japanese robotic company equipped it with a video camera, microphones and body heat sensors.

The small robocop can travel at up to 10kph, tracking bad guys, felons and bandits, upon which time it can fire a net at them and bring them to the ground.Tmsuk T-34 will enter in production in around two years time for the price of $9,000.

And be very careful, next Tmusk model might have lasers !
