Japan-based company Humanix introduces
a small electric car that no one would argue when they say it is the
“safest electric vehicle in the world.” The “iSAVE-SC1″ is padded with
inflated airbags from front to rear.
The
electric car, which runs on three wheels, is large enough for three
people. Its body is surrounded with tent cloth, which releases air upon
collision to soften the impact.
The iSAVE-AC1 can run up to 50 kilometers per hour and can be charged using household 100V power plugs.
A
project developed in cooperation with Hiroshima University, the
iSAVE-SC1 will be available for retail in Japan come November for
US$10,400, with a planned “mass production” beginning sometime next
year. Humanix also set up office in San Francisco last April, which
brings hope to Americans who are interested in purchasing this very safe
electric car.
