ELECTRIC POWER HAS BEEN AROUND FOR LONGER THAN WE THINK
Every so often I will show you a new electric car. There have been some very strange looking ones I must say. The idea isn’t a new phenomenon though. Way back in 1947 Nissan were experimenting with the idea and they came out with the Tama. Of course the first recognised electric vehicle was the trusty tram, which are being introduced again into cities around the world. Just think of the Luas in Dublin. Anyway, back to the fabulous Tama. The machine had a top speed of 22 mph and a range of 40 miles on a full battery, a bit like the new G-Wiz that is on the market now. The car was on show recently in Yokahama as part of their 22nd Electric Vehicle Symposium.
