Best New Old Famous Cars

Is this the best value NEW electric car? Dacia has overtaken Renault, Audi and BMW on the European market Using a platform from Renault Nissan in China, the Spring is a small 4 seat family EV that promises electric range of up to 140 miles. Dacia will launch, in the second part of this year, a new version of the Spring model. Dacia Spring 2024 will have a more robust design, new interior elements, but the model remains the most affordable electric car on the market, which is good considering that the state cut the Rabla Plus bonuses in half. Orders for the Dacia Spring 2024 will open in the spring. For the first time, the right-hand drive model will be produced for UK customers. "The new Spring adopts the new design elements inaugurated by the third generation of the Duster model. The model thus benefits from a more robust appearance with more personality, while the interior has been completely redone. The pavilion is the only component of the body preserved from the previous gene...

Mini E Evolution - Click above to watch video after the jump The Mini E is truly a pioneer in the electric vehicle (EV) segment. Even though it's not a true production model, it has shown the world that electric is awesome. The test program has made the iconic, lovable Mini a the poster child for electric vehicles and a sign of what the future may hold. Aside from a few minor quibbles, Mini E lessees are overly joyed with their first EV experience and many don't want to give the vehicle back at the end of the lease. As the saying goes, once you go electric, there's no going back. But is the Mini E really a vehicle that will change our lives and choices of what we drive forever? The creator of the Mini E Evolution video certainly believes so. The video depicts the little electric vehicle as the only remaining car on the planet at a time gasoline-engined relics just sit piled high at the local junkyard. Now, we're not sure that the Mini E is headed towards world dominatio...

Filed under: EV/Plug-in , Nissan Nissan Leaf - Click above for high-res image gallery Are you willing to argue with your friendly neighborhood Nissan dealer over the right to get yourself a Leaf? You might have to. Anyone who has gone through the Leaf reservation process this past week noticed a few screens that weren't exactly germane to determine which model - SL or SV trim - one was ordering. How far do you drive a day?, for example. Answers to these questions were not used to weed out potential buyers just yet, that might be a job for Nissan dealers. Carlos Tavares, Nissan's chairman of the Americas, told Automotive News : We may tell the customer, 'Look, you'd be better off buying an Altima or a Sentra because your driving patterns are not ideal for this car. ... We want to be transparent. It is fundamental for us to tell the customer what the car can deliver . That's a good strategy to take, given the fair bit of confusion that still - yes, still - exists ab...

We can already picture all the NVH engineers huddled in some back corner crying together. After all, they just find out that the duties they held of eliminating noises from cars for decades are about to be crushed by a new safety guideline that will put noise back into electric and hybrid vehicles. Automakers, along with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and advocates for the blind, have come to the conclusion that electric and hybrid cars need to make some noise as they motor whiz on down the road. Though an initial agreement has been reached, it could take up to three years to be finalized and become law, but that's politics for ya, eh? However, some of the proposed changes could wind up in the Motor Safety Act of 2010 if standards are agreed upon soon. Here's an overview of the suggestions in the proposal. The NHTSA would create a standard for minimum/maximum levels of sound when a vehicle is operating in low-speed situations. The sounds cannot be...

Filed under: EV/Plug-in , Nissan , Green Daily "I wouldn't touch that thing with a ten-foot pole!" That's the statement we often hear when it comes to working on potentially dangerous electric vehicles (EVs). This anti-EV sentiment can be heard from shadetree mechanics and old-timers who aren't specifically trained to work on the high voltage, amped-up inner workings of EVs - or first responders who know the dangers to the inexperienced - but we often hear similar ramblings from trained automotive technicians. Nissan aims to put the myths of danger associated with working on EVs like the Leaf to rest by training technicians at its newly opened technical center in Livermore, CA.

Filed under: EV/Plug-in , Green Daily Nissan Leaf dash display - Click above for high-res image gallery Here's a discussion we've had many times before. Let's say that you assess your driving habits and are convinced that an electric car with a range of 100 miles is perfectly suited to you. So you head on down to a dealership, buy that electric car and go about your business. A month or two of time passes and you begin to realize that the hundred miles of claimed range is more like 70 miles. Well, it turns out that 70 miles doesn't quite cut it for you. Disgusted, you demand a refund for your purchase and vow to never buy an electric car again.
