'The Lithium Carbon Fiber Super Car'

too bad the car is ugly

 

suhweeeeeeeet

 

It's too bad that Hybrid Technologies' style of press release tells one virtually nothing using many, many words.

We can infer that maybe, just maybe, this is an all-electric vehicle, as the press release uses the words "emissions free" and "lithium powered".

But is it also a hybrid? Is there an ICE? This is "Hybrid Technologies" after all. If not, why not?

We know the 0-60 time and the price. But we don't know the means of propulsion, the transmission style, the top speed, or (very importantly if this is all-electric) the range.

I wouldn't be so frustrated if Hybrid Technologies hadn't already issued scores of hollow press-releases over the years.

Just what is it that they really do, anyway?

yeah its ugly. its blasé and the chrome styling cues really pop out ugly. did they use an existing body frame? it's reminiscent of 1980's. do they need that much chrome for the headlights.. i mean.. they're huge. and then the tail lights are looking like AM.. without the grand.

ugly color palette, extended exhaust tips?, gumby looking dashboard..

i don't think its a good example of design in 2006, and its unfortunate that it takes away from the hybrid technology inside.

 

The Rocky Mountain Institute has had ultra light, super efficient "hypercars" in development for some time:

We all need to periodically revisit and support RMI's efforts for cost-effective, super efficient transportation.

 

No MFD? Boooguuus

 

The Lithium Carbon Fiber Super Car Model is estimated to retail at approximately $124,900.

Ohhh yes, pocket change I'll be standing in line for this baby! After I win the lottery, oh that would mean I'd have to start playing lol.... :lol:

Nice lookin Kit Car though...
