For those of us who can't plunk down $108K for an electric car (like, say, George Clooney's Tango T600), affordable all-electric auto transportation is now available, thanks to Myers Motors NmG.

The NmG (for "no more gas") car is a single-passenger, three-wheel, all-electric vehicle priced at $24,900. It's a descendent of the Corbin Sparrow, a pint-size personal electric vehicle for commuters that was unveiled in April of 1996. Because of defects with the Sparrow and other financial woes, Corbin Motors filed for bankruptcy in 2003. Myers Motors resurrected the company in 2004 and set about revamping production on the personal electric vehicle.

Myers retained the design of the original Sparrow, but reengineered the transport, electronics, and charging systems, which improved the car's performance, longevity, and durability. The batteries recharge in 4 to 6 hours on a 110-volt outlet and 2 to 3 hours on a 220-volt outlet. Compared with gas vehicles that get 40 mpg, with gas priced at about $3, the NmG runs at a cost of around a penny per mile. The NmG reaches a top speed of 70 mph, but its range is just 30 miles per recharge, so it's not made for long drives.

The NmG comes equipped with power windows, AM/FM stereo, a CD player, power ports for laptops and cell phones, and a fan-operated heater/defroster. The car registers as and insures as a motorcycle, so it is completely legal to drive on the road.
