BatSmart - For Superheroes

Smartfortwo Batmobile A cute adaptation of the fuel efficient little Smartfortwo Greenstumbler found on display at SEMA2008 in Nevada.

20,000 Smartfortwos have sold here in the U.S, without wings.

They already slow the evildoers who would end the planetary habitat of our species, just to scrape up the last few trillions off of our petrodollars.

So they are already super-hero cars just because they get 46 miles to the gallon.

But is this new Batmobile version truly flightworthy? It looks just a tad chunky to me.

CLEVER Vehicle From Technical University of Berlin

The CLEVER – Compact Low Emissions Vehicle for Urban Transport — was hatched at the Technical University of Berlin for lean, green, science-fiction-turned-hot-reality commuting to work. It is a one-seater that can do 100 KPH (62 MPH), and for a range of around 200 kilometers (~ 125 miles) while emitting less than 60 g/km of CO2.
