The Venturi Fetish is manufactured in Monaco that will cost the energy preservation conscious mind a pretty penny, actually $435,000.00 but for that aesthetic penny you get a 100% electric ran car that can top speeds of 100 mph. It definitely has the muscle car look and can run on a single charge up to 155 miles but is the macho image really worth the price? You will have to be the judge of that yourself.

Zenn Motors has come out with the closest looking electric vehicle to a SUV to date but is lacking in ability, range, and definitely lacking in speed and capability of performing like the traditional SUV’s. The Zenn NEV is more fitting for short trips to the local grocery store. Performance wise, it cannot be driven on an interstate itsy-bitsy lone a county road with its top speed of 25 miles per hour with a maximum of 35 miles per charge. However, price comparison to the Venturi Fetish, the Zenn NEV runs at $12 to $15,000.00 so if you are only going next door or to the local grocery store, a cab may be a better route regardless of the low price.

Okay, everyone loves a convertible, right; well how about a 100% ran electric convertible car that has a range of 150 miles per charge and can reach speeds up to 100 mph, like the Spyder. This all-electric car definitely has a look that would turn heads and should for the price tag of $70,000.00.

Now this car will do more then get you to the grocery store and back with the 250-mile range per charge. The Lightening GT tops out at 130 mph and can go from 0 to 60 in 4 seconds flat. Compare that to a Jags 4.2 XKR convertibles speed of the 0 to 60 in 5 seconds, the Lightning GT is nothing to smirk at and puts to rest the notion that going electric means giving up power and performance.

However, the price does reflect the serve of preserving the environment and saving the owner in fuel cost. Time will tell how reflective the value will be with the new electric cars in comparison to frequency and types of repairs needed and how, if at all, they offset the initial acquire sign.
