xebra on monk

From the popular "detective" series Monk, here's a brief segment containing a character driving up in a 2008 or 2009 Xebra electric vehicle. It's hard to tell what the background noise is, but I'm sure it's dubbed in, since these vehicles are nearly silent to outside observers. You can learn more about them at www.xebraworld.com

piece of shit

@discocreator76, such an eloquent way of expressing your opinion. It shows well your upbringing.

the center of gravity of this vehicle is quite low, as the batteries are below axle level and it is not an easy vehicle to tip. It is nearly impossible to get it up on two wheels. You have to have too much speed, a sharp turn and perhaps a bump or ramp and it only lifts a very small distance.

Monk lied. The future on wheels is a 1985 Delorean at 88 MPH (and 1.21 jiggawatts)

Lets see. Assuming a jiggawatt is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 watts, and Marty's Delorean is 12-volt based, then the Flux Capacitor is putting out 1.21 jiggawatts and there fore W/V=A (not considering any losses) so that means 100,833,333,333,333,333 amps under constant load. NEC2008 says motors on continuous duty must be fused at 125%. Hmm. That size? Not something you can buy at Home Cheapo. Not standard.

I like the tadpole arrangement better too (partially just the way it looks).

This is made by ZAP(Zero Air Pollutions). Monk is my favorite TV show.

3 wheels?! In the same configuration as a Reliant Robin, thats kind of unstable I would feel safer driving backwards.
