NASA scientists and directors were able to test drive the latest in electric vehicles, such as the Wheego, an American made electric coupe, and the Tazzarri Zero, an Italian built lithium ion roadster. The FOTON, a high output all terrain vehicle, was also tested. EVCARCO's CEO Dale Long shared his company's vision with NASA and discussed the future with the organization's directors. Long stated that EVCARCO is looking forward to a long relationship with NASA and hopes to gain significant applied science relationships through the partnership. Mr. Long eluded to the possibility of enhancing their products for Government applications.

Electric cars may be the future of the automotive industry, so we took a spin in one from Wheego Electric Cars Inc. along with Wheego CEO Mike McQuarry. The startup, which is seeking $2.5 million in venture capital, has produced a two-seater city car called the Whip, which can reach speeds of up to 35 miles per hour and travel up to 50 miles on an eight-hour charge. While it is not as sleek as the better known, faster alternative, the Tesla Roadster (base price: $109000), the Wheego at $19500 before a $7500 government incentive costs a pittance in comparison.
