  <description>  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: #292929"&gt;The Zap car is a wonderful environment friendly electric car. At a time when there is uncertainty regarding gas prices and an increased focus on global warming, the zap car comes as a near solution to both. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: black"&gt;The ZAP car is a 3 wheeler (officially classified as a motorcycle) electric car&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: #292929"&gt;. The electricity used can be generated through renewable resources that further lessen our environmental footprint like hydroelectric, solar, wind etc. In fact, studies show that millions of electric cars can recharge at night using existing surplus electricity generation; a vast, virtually untapped resource. It also produces 98% fewer pollutants than gas cars thus being environment friendly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: #292929"&gt;Since the zap car doesn&amp;rsquo;t run on gas or require oil change or trips to the mechanic (cos of its design), it saves you money and pays itself out! The typical zap car costs a penny per mile versus ten cents per mile with gas. Another thing, it saves you enough on insurance premium as well!&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: #292929"&gt;On the flip side, the maximum speed the current zap car model goes upto is 40 mph. But again, if you work closeby, this electric car can be both pocket and environment friendly alternative. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; color: #292929"&gt;For those who like to travel at supersonic speed, watch out for the 2009 ZAP Alias which will go upto 100 mph!
