Nov 30 2009Cuuute!: Is This The Next Electric Car-Thing?
The electric-powered E'mo was designed by the StauffacherBenz Studio and looks like the lovechild of a golf cart, Jeep and Tonka truck (wild night!). I'd ride in it, but I wouldn't be caught driving it. At least not by the police -- I don't have a license! (Think your mom can drive us to the mall later?)
...the car runs on lithium-ion batteries good for about 60 miles per charge and can run at speeds up to 80 miler per hour. A release date has not been announced, but the vehicle will sell for 10,000 euros ($15,000) here.
Hey, I'm all for it. Except two things: 1) I don't feel safe going 80 in a vehicle with no doors, and 2) the name. E'mo, really? Who wants to own a car that posts pictures of itself on Myspace crying and slashing its own tires?
Love Bug of the future: the electric-powered E'mo car [dvice]

Just the fact that it's called E'mo already makes it an #epicfail.

Or you could take that $15,000 and put a downpayment on a Prius.

Lame. It looks like an esky (that's Australian for ice-box, or cooler or whatever the hell you guys call the blue boxes that keep beer cold and make good seats)

For $15k, I really would want a car that is at least equipped with doors. Hmm...

For a small fee, you can upgrade your e'mo car with skinny jeans and black bangs that cover half the windshield.

Go cry, E'mo car!
Don't worry about the lack of doors and stuff, you get them by driving over 1up mushrooms and upgrading with stuff that falls off of other cars.
