When you want the best, go for a hi-performance plug-in car.
Being environmentally friendly doesn't mean sacrificing speed, style, handling or comfort. Check out these models:
Tesla Roadster
A favorite trick at Tesla Motors is to invite a passenger along on a Tesla Roadster test drive and ask him to turn on the radio. At the precise moment they ask this, they also accelerate. The passenger simply can't sit forward enough to reach the dials. Sound like something fun to try with your own passenger? We thought so. Enjoy acceleration of 0 to 60 in 3.9 secs, a top speed of 125 mph and 244 mile range.
Fisker Karma
A fully-charged Karma burns no fuel for the first 50 miles. Venture further and the gasoline engine turns a generator to charge the lithium ion battery. Once the 50-mile electric range has been exceeded, the car operates as a normal hybrid vehicle. This balance of electric and gas range makes it entirely possible that Karma drivers who charge their car overnight, and commute less than 50 miles a day, will achieve an average fuel economy of 100 mpg per year. An acceleration of 0 to 60 in 6 seconds and a top speed of 125mph is also nothing to sneeze at.
Venturi Fetish
With the engine ideally placed in the rear central position with a carbon monocoque
chassis, the Fetish architecture is comparable to that of a racing car. A fast complete recharge in 1 hour and in 3 hours with a standard grid thanks to its onboard
charger. Did we mention the 0 to 60mph accleration in less than 5 seconds? How about the 155 mile range on a single charge and a top speed of 100 miles per hour? Excited yet?
