Recharge-able Volvo?

by Independant Daily



Is this the future? I certainly hope so.

Well, this car doesn't just run on battery. The battery thing only last about 62 miles on a full charge. Didn't say how long it'll take for a full charge but i'm guessing quite some time. But what's good, as you drive the car and you run out of battery, the standard petrol/diesel engine kicks in. As it runs, it charges the battery (like a dynamo la) and when the battery gets enough juice to power the car, the petrol/diesel engine cuts.

This would definately save a lot of fuel. Soon, everyday before we go to bed we have to remember to charge our phone, iPod, camera, pda, notebook, ebook, e-bike, e-wallet, e-keys, e-Cars, e-tc, e-tc, e-tc...
