    Vehicles that run o electricity do not have to be necessarily slow. They do have their adrenaline rushes too that make them go “zoom!” Take the battery powered vehicle a team from Ohio State University’s Center for Auto Research brought to the Bonneville Salt Flats this week for example. The man at the wheel, Roger Schroer shot this vehicle through a previously set record of 245.5mph in an electric car by reaching speeds of up to 320mph. instead of the previous fuel-cell version that ran on hydrogen and reached speeds of 303mph, the new vehicle with a little aide from battery maker Venturi and A123 Systems lithium-ion batteries now goes a lot faster. The Buckeye Bullet 3 as it has been lovingly christened after the previous Buckeye Bullet 2; the vehicle is pulling up its sleeves and reading itself to break a whole load of more records.


    We sure love them when they’re electric and fast!
