Will the cost of gas finally spur a green renaissance?

Who says green cars have to be boring..... or slow?

Rinspeed eXasis (click on 'concept cars'). Very light for maximum efficiency. But still powered by fuel.

Fisker Karma. Plug-in hybrid that can go 80km before the gas generator kicks in. Optional solar panel roof for assisted recharging.

Venturi Eclectic. It's not fast (or pretty), but by using every form of energy generating technology known (wind / solar / plug-in), it is one of the most self-sufficient cars.

Other green lightning can be seen here at Wired's '10 Fastest Green Cars on the Planet' article.
