Friends: 0 | So I was out walking here in Hopkinton, MA and guess what I found parked outside A123 Systems parking lot? A brand new Th!nk with Norwegian plates. Its parkef just next to the their plug-in hybrid's test mule.... Makes my mouth water! I think the reason the th!nk is so high of the ground it because it was delivered "empty" from Norway.... I'm trying to setup a guided tour of their facility... So maybe just maybe I can find out more. The first picture show their A123 system plug-in test mule.... I would love to take that one for a spin! To find out more about this EV go to http://www.think.no/ Last edited by SomervillePrius; 09-08-2008 at 04:46 PM. |

Friends: 0 | My wife and I have been talking and we're considering getting two Think EVs for commuting and an old beat up Volvo Station Wagon as a "family mobile". That and the solar panels we will have installed would put a serious dent in our carbon dependency! |

Friends: 0 | It's actually cuter in real life... but yeah the design is perhaps not the selling feature of this car. |

Thanks for the pictures. I'm pretty sure our next car is going to be an electric micro-car too. | |

Friends: 2 | Holy cow! The headlights are bigger than the wheels. If I had one, I'd call it Betty Boop. Boop, boopy doop! |

Friends: 0 | Chevy Volt will use batteries from the same manufacturer (a123) but somehow I don't suspect to see one parked outside anytime soon... |

The car looks a little like a cross between a mini and a smart car (crossed with a golf cart). It's a little plasticy but still cool looking to me. I like the turn signals on the side of the car. The car as I understand it was developed when Ford owned them and the steering wheel etc looks taken from a Ford Focus. The one thing I couldn't see in this car was AC... and there are all analog meters inside. I was hoping it would provide more feedback on battery left etc. Still this is one of the electric cars I actually believe will be sold here shortly and it meets my minimum reqs Last edited by SomervillePrius; 09-09-2008 at 09:13 AM. | |
