Electric cars are starting to pop up more often, each car company seems to be either making one or on the verge of producing a car propelled by electrons. The newest one to join the Nissan Leaf is the Mitsubishi i. I personally find it ugly and it looks similiar to the Tata Nano. Other markets have experienced electric cars, electric vehicles are more popular in Europe and Japan. Electric vehicles have been available over seas for the last few years. This new addition, the i, can travel just under 100 miles and takes a whole day to charge in a normal 110 volt. Here is a picture of the i and the Nano. The Mitsubishi is on the left in blue, the Nano on the right in white.

Looks like SAAB might be saved, and from China no less. China's economy has been improving and their auto industry is booming. They are starting to snatch up car companies when they can. They took Volvo and almost took Hummer. A Chinese company also bought the rights and tooling to an older SAAB model. And now another Chinese company is helping out SAAB. I wonder how long this can go on, how long SAAB can limp around. Just for kicks, enjoy this Buick Regal playing jump rope.
