VaVaVOOOOoooommmmmm.

I imagine they could add a switch that would turn on fake engine sounds to match the acceleration. I also imagine people would turn it off after listening to it once. Just imagine how Lame that would be.

What I really like about this is the option to charge the car from a home photoelectric system. Of course, that's another set of batteries sitting at home, unless you can sell the daytime electricity back to the utility company and get a cheaper night time rate.

Batteries are still the weak point for electric cars. The guy said the miles per charge will increase. No it won't. Maybe next year's model will go further, but your car will go slower and slower, and less far, with each passing year -- just like your laptop.
