India's own green car

A report at IHT on the perky little electric car called Reva that you may have seen in Bangalore.

"We were looking at making a car for the crowded new cities in India and China, not a green vehicle for the Californian market," he said.
Amen. And, they sell it in Europe. My next car may as well be this. The secondhand VolksWagen I bought in desperation when I arrived in the UK is bleeding my wallet. Look! I already found a nifty blog on this by a Londoner!

Neat stuff, and a good article, although I take exception to the claim that electric cars are facing extinction worldwide. With the rise of the Hybrid electric and the new Tesla roadster, I'd say it's an idea wose time has finally come, especially as more sources of renewable electric power comes on-line. :)

Kinda cute, in a cartoonish way, but I hope it comes in other colors.
