Tamiya – one of those ambiguously pronounced brand names was the make of my first radio controlled car. Low and behold, they are still being made but supposedly slightly updated. I was always envious of the bigger, newer models, in particular the Hornet. I still had heaps of fun with my Grasshopper.
BMW have unveiled a electric mini named the “Mini E” that features a 150-kilowatt (204 horsepower) motor and a top speed of just over 150 km/h and a range of up to 240 km’s. Not as quick as the Tesla reaching from 0 – 100 km/h in 8.5 seconds but just as many seats. The back seats have been removed to accommodate the battery, which in turn has led to a slightly heavier Mini with a 50-50 front/rear weight ratio.
Interesting to note that even though charging the Mini E requires generation from another power source, that even if that power source is a coal powered station, it will still produce less CO2 than internal combustion vehicles.
