Electric Cars For Sale

The automobile industry is trying to redeem itself by not only developing electric cars for sale but also revealing concepts of “green” electric cars. These are cars that would cause minimum damage to the environment. In a bid to stand out of the crowd, automakers are trying all that they can, to prove their green credentials.

Apart from a range of low emission cars, the British International Motor Show this year had a “green village” complete with hybrid vehicles and electric cars. Some of these cars had been fitted with dashboards made of cork. Now cork is the only wood that can be harvested without killing any tree. The British sports car manufacturer, Lotus displayed its Eco Elise concept. The car has been meticulously designed in such a way that its impact on the environment would be minimum at every stage, be it production, in use or at the end of its life. The makers have used sustainable materials like eco wood, hemp and sisal for the body panels and trim. What’s more, they have used hi-tech water based paint technology. The hemp hard top has been fitted with solar panels and is intended for powering electrical systems like the car audio. We hope that other electric car companies get inspired by the Eco Elise.
