Park into the future in Los Angeles!

Parking is the lifeblood that keeps Los Angeles alive and its citizens moving -- and once they finish moving, they must find a place to stop. We define our relationships through parking. We memorize a byzantine code of 3R permits, metered parking, street sweeping times, two-hour-parking-8 a.m.-to-8 p.m.-except-Sundays, loading zones, taxi zones, fire lanes, bus lanes.

Think City EV Cup Edition (2010) first official pictures

Manufacturers have been trying to make their racers more economical for some time now; Audi and Peugeot have produced diesel Le Mans winners and CAR reviewed the Porsche GT3 R Hybrid in the June 2010 issue, but this the most recent fully electric offering from Norwegian company Think.   Think has followed the traditional road-racer conversion for this one-off prototype, by stripping out most of the interior and space for the passenger, using Perspex instead of glass in the windows, installing a solitary lightweight bucket seat and lowering the centre of gravity. The company claims the diet reduces the Think's weight by nearly 70kg; that's the same saving as a Lamborghini Gallardo Superlegerra, remember.

Who's teaching the teens?

“Here's how you prove you're qualified to teach driving in Colorado: Fill a glass container with ice. Breathe on the glass. If condensation forms, you're in.” So said Ronn Langford, founder and CEO of MasterDrive (online at www.masterdrive.com), a driving school based in Colorado Springs, Colo., that also operates in California's Orange County.
