Electric Car Makes World Debut in Baltimore
Friday June 26, 2009
The Maya 300, a new electric car that runs on a lithium-ion battery that can be charged with any household outlet, was unveiled this week at the Maryland Science Center. The car is made by Electrovaya Inc.
It has a top speed of 35 mph, but it produces zero emissions and gets 120 miles per charge. Intrigued? You can take this green gem for a test drive now through July 31 just by purchasing a regular admission ticket to the science center.
Soon the science center plans to rent its 10 altcars to the public for $14.95 an hour, and it plans to start a green-car sharing network in which members will be able to rent a car for $7.50 an hour. To register call 410-528-0150 or visit the altcar sharing networks' Web site.
