FollowNASCAR driver turned environmentalist, Leilani Munter, takes time out from the 2011 Detroit Auto Show to introduce Green Energy News to the world’s faster electric car, the Inizio, by Li-Ion Motors. Capable of speeds of up to 170mph (RTX model), the Inizio goes from 0-60mph in 3.4 seconds, faster than it’s competition (Tesla Roadster), which reaches 60mph in just about 3.7 seconds.
With a price tag of $130,000 USD, the Inizio certainly isn’t a practical choice for everyone; but just like when Chevy announced the 454ci LS6 engine in 1970, the Inizio marks a new era of American muscle… and it sure looks green.
