The 2008 Mitsubishi iMiEV electric car

Overview: Mitsubishi is bringing its iMiEV to the City of Angels. The company claims that driving something like this represents a 72% reduction in carbon-dioxide emissions (compared with a gasoline-drinking car of comparable size), even taking into account the manufacturing process and whatever the power station is spewing out.

Our take: No, it’s not exactly new, but electric cars are, pardon the pun, creating quite a buzz these days.
