A nanotechnology-powered electric SUV
June 24th, 2007

If you live in California, you’ll be able to buy an electric SUV by the end of the year. The Reno Gazette-Journal reports that this electric SUV will be using NanoSafe rechargeable, nano titanate batteries developed by Altairnano. The future SUVs will have an autonomy of more than 100 miles per charge at a factory set top speed of 95 mph. And by stopping at future Pacific Gas & Electric’s “rapid charge stations,” it will take less than 10 minutes to recharge these batteries. Phoenix Motorcars, which will assemble these all-electric vehicles, has focused on fleet use for 2007 and plans to deliver 500 vehicles for 2007 and 6,000 vehicles for 2008.
