Eco friendly cars

This one I like it very much. A magnetic hybrid motorbike was unveiled in Japan. This magnetic motorcycle can run 112 miles with one charge. The maximum spedd is 93 miles/h, which is very good. The battery can be charged at home, like you charge a cellular phone. And, the noise is extremely low.
The energy efficiency is very high thanks to the magnetic motor, a hybrid between a electromagnet and a permanent magnet, and is a masterpiece. The motor, SUMO(from super moto), is built inside bike’s rear wheel, and the manufacturers said that is seven times more cost efficient than gas-powered scooters.
The company plans to start selling a mini-scooter version of the magnetic-powered bike in 2007.

Well, this is a very interesting project, I hope it will be a succes.
Here is the video with the magnetic hybrid motorbike, and with the scooter version:
