PUMA headed in the same direction as other small vehicle?

GM has partnered with Segway to create the new electric car, PUMA. The new car will run on electricity only, and according to designer will cost about $1.00 dollar of electricity to charge the car entirely. This means that you’ll pay about $1.00 for about 35 miles of riding. GM predicts the PUMA to be in full production by 2012.

GM Breaking the mold

GM recently reveled its latest creation; the P.U.M.A (personal Urban Mobility and Accessibility) was unveiled to the public in the 2009 New York Auto Show. This new form of vehicle is design for short travel, with a seating capacity of two and maxing out at 35 Mph, the PUMA can run about 35 miles with one charge. Not bad considering that the charging time is about 6 – 8 hours on a regular house outlet.
GM’s new creation is expected to produce a prototype with in the next 90 days. Let’s hope Obama likes it.
