Honda Civic EV

This is actually car built for rallying. Top speed is somewhere north of 120 kph (75 mph). When the accelerator pedal is depressed, the motor powers the car forwards. When it is released to a neutral level, the car coasts. When the pedal is fully released, regenerative braking comes into play (not toned down at all like consumer hybrids on the road today)

Builder: Takashi Ashida
TGMY Co, Ltd.

Driver: Takashi Sudo
Osaka Sangyo University (OSU), Osaka, Japan

Passengers: Tomoyuki Katsuki, OSU
Myles Lam, Stanford University

I did NOT build this car, or have any part in developing or designing it. I simply rode in it and filmed the test ride while another person drove it. kthxbye.
