Nobe, A New-age Lovely Electric Car

On a three-wheeled chassis and edged with the chrome of America’s muscle days, this new-age take on an antique design is a reminder of a time when cars weren’t just a daily commuter but a work of art to boot. Nobe may take you back sixty years, but “we’re proud of that, but we’re ten years ahead of the times with an electric take you’re sure to be shocked by.”Nobe offers a classic, playful yet conventional way to own a piece of nostalgia without the carbon footprint.

Electric Taxi And Battery Changes

Fascinating this rapid change of batteries in the Eucort Taxi in Barcelona in 1943, as shown by this RTVE film. But they were not the first Spanish electric taxis between the civil war and postwar; and we also bring here two photos of a change of batteries back in 1906 - just as effective.

Hotzenblitz, Where Are You

This is not the latest creation of an attractive electric car from a new company still unknown, but a strong commitment to early nineties of the last century of a silent and attractive future car with all its well-crafted details.

Die Geschichte Der Elektroautos

english translation see above Nikolaus August Otto, Erfinder des Viertakt-Gasmotors, war schon 1899 davon überzeugt, dass der Elektroantrieb seine Erfindung eines Tages ergänzen würde. "Es handelt sich dabei um etwas ganz Grosses", sagte er. Jetzt soll es also soweit sein, doch es ist schon der siebte Versuch, Elektrowagen in Serie zu produzieren. Vielleicht klappt es nun - 134 Jahre nachdem das erste komplett fahrbereite Elektrodreirad von Gustave Trouvé auf der Elektrik-Messe in Paris stand. Im Jahr 2015 werden mit etwa einer Million Einheiten mehr Elektroautos am Strassenverkehr weltweit teilnehmen als je zuvor.
