I took a week long excursion out to California and part of the excitement involved a test drive with this little car. Holy $hit man, does this Tango go fast!
There are only two Tangos in existence right now and three more are on the way (Sergey, Larry and Eric each ordered one). Hopefully after the Google Boys gets theirs, we’ll be seeing more on the streets in 5-10 years.
Some interesting tidbits on Chicks N’ Cars. We may have known this already, but girls wear the pants in the household when it comes to car buying. That means we hold a heck of a lot of sway in the automotive industry when it comes to what we want to see on the road.
- Edmund’s reports that women influence over 85% of all car buying decisions.
- According to the survey by Good Housekeeping and J.D. Power and Associates, 82 percent of women think that environmentally friendly vehicles are “extremely important” or “somewhat important” compared to 72.3 percent of men.
So c’mon girls, let’s head out on the highway, turn on our headlights, and show the car companies what we’re looking for.
Did you pose with the car so we can use the image for the EV(e) calendar?
You’ll see the photo soon enough.
There’s seeing, and then there’s sharing… I’m not going to let you tie in EVs with nuclear as a solution to Global Warming… ain’t gonna happen. You and your pro-Indian Point friends have another thing coming if you think you’re going to sell that lie to the public.
Curious here Summer…did Seth (ETS Energy Store) arrange this through his supposed GREEN Enterprise, or was it his parters who do work at the Indian Point Reactors (BGA Engineering) who arranged the opportunity? Love the car, familiar with the Tango’s attributes…just not so sure how happy they would be in being tied even indirectly to reactors that are leaking strontium 90 and tritium into the Hudson River with the nuclear industry and NRC’s blessing. By the way, you have still not publically announced your own position on nuclear energy…are you buying into CASEnergy’s (funded by nuclear industry lobbyist NEI) and Michael Moore’s lie of Nuclear as clean, green and vital?
Wow, the tango looks awesome! I am within walking distance of the train where I live, but many people are not, and have ‘station cars’….but there are only so many parking spaces. Imagine if everyone could drive a little car like this one- twice as many parking spaces without paving over the woods next door, more people on the train because now they can get there more easily, and you can even make a quick run to the grocery store after work to pick up dinner (hard to do on a bike, especially if its raining….)
Congrats with the shoot Summer!!!
BTW, when I did the largest EV station car program, we showed how a two seat electric car could increase parking without using more land. This is a great example of what could be done. Communities like Chappaqua and White Plains in NY loved the program for that reason alone. All the best.
