[s-cars] Lithium-ion car ~ NAC

[James Shackelford]

This concept is actually pretty cool.  With gas prices going crazy, I drove
my sisters Prius and was impressed with the 60 MPG she got on the highway...
of course the car can't get out of it's own way, and that would drive me
crazy.  Electric and performance should go hand in hand, owing to the fact
that an electric motor gives you 100% torque immediately.  It will be
interesting to see what types of vehicles are developed by this company.
0-60 in 4 seconds sounds conservative and is probably limited by the amount
of traction available.

No turbo.  No noise.  

(Hope they're not Sony/Dell batts;)
