At first, this beastly black ride seems to be grinning pretty wickedly. However, its insides seem to be unreasonably kind, both to the environment, as well as your wallet! Called the PG Elektrus, this electric roadster was developed by German manufacturer PG and Düsseldorf-based automobile designer Michael Fröhlich and is based on the Lotus Elise. Sporting an electric motor powered by a lithium-ion battery, the PG Elektrus’ insides produces the equivalent of 272-horsepower and 350Nm (258.2 lb-ft) of constant torque, pushing the car to the 62mph mark in less than 3 seconds! With a claimed 186mph top speed, this car boasts a range of up to 217 miles and comes with a price tag of €240,000 (US$312,400).
