This is rumored to be the base for a future production model.<br /><br />The new car offers amazing performance for an all-electric vehicle, with a range of around 99 miles, a top speed of 99 miles per hour, and it gets from a 0-37mph in an impressive 5 seconds.<br /><br />That kind of performance is great for an electric vehicle, but probably still a little too doddery for today’s market, which is why it has been rumored that Honda may yet introduce a hybrid model.<br /><br />The Honda EV-STER Concept also features adjustable suspension, which allows the driver to choose between ‘mild’, ‘mid’ and ‘hard’ settings for different rides in different situations.<br /><br />The Honda EV-STER is smaller than most other roadsters in its class like the Mazda MX-5. But it does offer comfortable room for two people though there may not be a lot of room left if Honda decides to make the car into a production hybrid, i.e. including a petrol engine with the electric drive train.<br /><br />In short, Honda seems to have done it yet again, second-guessing the way cars will look five years or so from now, as a function of their own developments in cutting edge car technology. Where Honda leads, other manufacturers generally follow, saving money by following Honda’s concepts.<br /><br />But if the kind of green cars customers are looking for is anything to go by, the Honda EV-STER or any car based on it, whether hybrid or all electric, could have a big future.<br /><p></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
