The Japanese surely love their environment with the latest release of an electric vehicle that comes with a trio of wheels, an equal number of seats all packaged in a purely traditional Japanese design. The four companies behind that hopes for it to be a tourist attraction where it will be based in ancient cities such as Kyoto and Nara. As part of its traditional Japanese design, it will see two doors made of “washi” (traditional Japanese paper) coated with vermilion lacquer. The rechargeable lithium-ion batteries can plus be juiced up using home electrical outlets, and are capable of pushing the engine at a maximum speed of 40kph. It will cost around $24,950 each, where the companies involved hope to lower its total cost to $10,850 per vehicle in due instance whether response to it is encouraging.

Hitachi has apparently come up with a technology that is able to double the usable lifetime of a lithium-ion battery, which will certainly be welcome by all consumers all around. The method that Hitachi uses will extend the life of the manganese cathodes inside a cell, resulting in the batteries being able to achieve a lifespan of 10 years before needing to be replaced. The additional benefit of that new technology is that it uses less cobalt than usual batteries, and as a aftereffect, should be less expensive to produce. Are you currently dissatisfied with your notebook’s ailing battery? Hopefully Hitachi will be able to solve your woes.

Who said cars have to be faraway? GM’s latest EN-V (Electric Networked Vehicle) concept looks a bit like a giant Segway that’s enclosed. Three different designs were unveiled, and they were Jiao (Price), Miao (Magic), and Xiao (Laugh). The EN-V apparently uses twin electric motors along with dynamic stabilization technology to allow the EN-V to turn easily, and even operate autonomously, thanks to integrated GPS. You can charge its lithium-ion batteries from your standard wall outlet, and you should be able to travel about 40 kilometers on a one charge. The EN-V even sports a built-in wireless transmitter/receiver of sorts, which allows your friends to track your travels whether you allow them too, though that might not be ideal whether you’re doing something hush hush. whether that were to become a reality, would you drive it?

Press release.

All the coolest gadgets in the market probably have a common problem – battery life. With plenty of external batteries being created to sustain your iPhone when used in an extended trip, it’s obvious that battery technology is lagging behind. whether the new lithium-sulfur technology developed by the folks at Stanford becomes mature, we might just have a solution to our battery woes. that new technology is apparently safer, and more importantly (actually safety is probably more important); it currently achieves 80 percent more capacity than lithium-ion batteries. The downside is that it’s still far from becoming a mass market product, as the charge cycles of just 40-50 times compared to the 300-500 times of lithium-ion batteries aren’t anything to shout about. Hopefully they manage to tweak it and we’ll see a significant boost in battery life in all our devices sooner rather than later.

Are you, like most of us, dissatisfied with the current battery technology? After all, nobody likes their gadgets/computer running out of juice. A Japanese company, Eamex, claims that it has found a way to sort out the current issues we’re having with lithium-ion batteries. With its new technology, the batteries will be able to be charged and discharged by 10,000 times, and the best part is that they can last a good 20 years.

Sanyo let out word that they will parade their Solar Electric Vehicle (EV) at the upcoming Eco Products 2009 worldly Exhibition in Tokyo, where that solar EV will be powered not by Eneloops, but Sanyo’s very own Solar Panels and Lithium Ion batteries. The truck (sorry, no fancy sports car here) is able to run up to a purported 130km after 16 hours of direct solar charging, while those who decide to take the more conventional approach of going through AC ability will require half the amount of date. Too poor that ain’t a looker, otherwise a green playboy might just want to check it out.

Sanyo will be rolling out a Solar Parking Lot in Setagaya, Tokyo next spring. that different parking lot will obtain electricity thanks to the number of solar panels installed on top of the roof, where all the ability will be stored in lithium ion batteries that will in turn be used to juice up electric hybrid bicycles as well as illuminate the LED parking lot lights. Apart from that, the lithium ion battery system additionally comes with AC ability outlets that enables one to potential external equipment when plugged in.
