Coda Electric Car Review

Posted by sandman49

Coda Electric Cars are made by Coda, a california car company. This review video gives you a look at the car, and also a good look at the batteries and motor inside the car, thanks to a cuataway display Coda put on display. Coda cars charge faster and go farther than other electric cars, and you can charge a Coda car with a 110 volt outleet. Maximum range on an elextric charge is 150 miles, which is great for the average commuter. The motor makes 134 horsepower and 221 foot pounds of torque, and the batteries are all below the floor borads, making for a low center of gravity. Cota cars fit and finsih is very nice, and competitive with the other major car manufacturers. I hope they do well. It looks like a really great car.

Revenge Of The Electric Car [Theatrical Trailer]

Posted by sandman49

“RIVETING… HIGHLY ENTERTAINING” – John Lopez, Vanity Fair In 2006, as many as 5000 modern electric cars were destroyed by the major car companies that built them.Today, less than 5 years later, the electric car is back… with a vengeance. “Revenge Of The Electric Car” follows 4 larger-than-life entrepreneurs at the forefront of the electric car race. First, there’s Bob Lutz — Mr Detroit himself, the cigar-smoking vice-chairman of GM, who has been making gas-guzzling cars his entire career. He is challenged by Elon Musk, the young dot-com maverick billionaire who thinks that he can show Detroit how to build cars with his Silicon Valley-based Tesla Motors. Carlos Ghosn of Nissan-Renault, the desperately smart and ruthless businessman who singlehandedly rescued Nissan from ruin, wants to flood the market with affordable mainstream electric vehicles. And lastly, “Gadget” Abbott, a reverend/designer/engineer is one of thousands of electric car DIY-ers who together may be a force big enough to change the auto industry forever. “Revenge Of The Electric Car” opens in the US beginning Oct. 21.

Crazy motorcycle tires

Posted by sandman49

Thank you for your time and thank you for watching. As you may already know, Rhinotire is the best and the most efficient tire protection technology in the world. It is much superior than all other competitors like RUNFLAT or liquid sealers because seals multiple punctures automatically with NO need to replace the tire after puncture – unlike the expensive Runflats, Rhinotire does not affect balance, does not mess up rims or sensors. It is the dream come thru for the bikers and racers. The only down side is that the process of making a regular tire to a Rhinotire is complicated and requires special equipment. In that equipment a special polymer (RhinoPlex) is heated up to a very high temperature, and then sprayed evenly inside a spinning tire. After cooling off, the tire becomes Rhinotire. The polymer will not pill, leak, freeze or move; it will seal the punctures automatically without air leak even from multiple punctures in the same spot, will not affect the balance, will make the tire safer and will reduce the noise by 30%. The opportunities for Rhinotire applications are very lucrative. If you have connections to any of the following: Government- Army, Police and Fire, road maintenance, municipality vehicles and school buses, Fleet vehicles – Rent a Car, Taxis, Armor, Ambulance, Telephone and television companies fleets, delivery trucks, OEM – manufacturers of tires, cars of motorcycles, truck and buses, mobile construction equipment, motor homes, trailers, farm
