Next Regular Meeting: NEV Regulations and Speed Limits Saturday, June 28, 2008
![]() As we roll into summer, let's take a look at the ever-growing market of NEVs. The are low-speed electrics for the city street, which currently are limited to 25 mph max speed yet legal to drive on posted 35 mph streets. These cars and trucks cannot drive freeway speeds but yearn to at least drive 30 mph, possibly 35, just to keep up with the surface street flow of traffic. Also mark your calendars for next month - July 4th - when we will be leading off the 4th of July parade in Alameda by providing clean & green transportation for parade dignitaries. EVs will be on-hand and informal Q&A can take place in the parking lot after the meeting. Hope all can attend this meeting.

Previous Meeting: EV Motorcycles and Lithum Batteries Saturday, May 17, 2008
Last month we met with Todd and his team at Electric Motor Sports in Oakland to see how they have squeezing high-capacity lithium batteries into the tight spaces and weight constrains of motorcycles for several years now. They displayed a variety of full-size scooters and motorcycles and shared their experience with pushing new technologies into these vehicle platforms. We discussed some of their experiences with this battery technology and how it can be applied to other types of EVs.
