Moving to a new EV adventure


I'm on the list to get the new BMW ActiveE which I guess you can call the son of the MiniE.

I can't wait to plug-in again. Check out my new ActiveE blog for the goods.

Can electric make a luxury car more luxurious?


Yes.....


I had to post this here since it confirms the advantage driving electric. Quiet, fast and luxurious, being green is a bonus - the traditional motor won't be missed.

The eBox


A great video from Translogic.com with Tom Gage from AC Propulsion. AC Propulsion played a big role in the MINI E electric motor and brains.

Getting this blog going again

For those familiar with this blog it was all about my days with MINI E #402. Those days have ended but not my excitement or interest in EVs.

I still have many contacts in the industry as well as the energy industry so I figured I'll start to post EV related information here that has a link to the MINI E family.

Stay tuned for a more general EV spin off blog.
