All electric muscle cars - Mustang and Shelby Cobra - announced

Another milestone in the ever-evolving all electric car. First we had Tesla Motors, which promised to create a completely fresh, uncompromising electric vehicle. Unfortunately, although Tesla has begun its formal manufacturing process, only one production vehicle has dribbled out of the factory -- and that's gone to the company's primary financier.

Now, HST International and Tjaarda Design announces a new partnership that will bring electrified versions of two traditional muscle cars on the road. With a range of about 100 miles, these new introductions are just at the edge of practicality for many commuters.

I wish them the best because a powerful, all-electric car seems like the perfect car for me to drive ... even if I wish it was more like a Mercedes S500.
