Electric Car that Can Power the Home

The car is named Grid charger and it is the brain child of designer Robert Marvin. This grid car is a high performance family car that runs silently with green energy.

To each wheel of the car there is an electric motor. The motors include a regenerative braking system so whenever the driver applies the break the power is generated. This is an interesting point to be noted.

It is noted that the vehicle appearance is like a steam turbine and is designed to have an aero dynamic of a super car. This grid charger is also fuel efficient. Since the steam turbine needs water the designer have decided to place a water tank at the back of the rear seat.

Though drive for a long time the car consumes only a low amount of fuel and when you park the vehicle outside your house it can be used to power it.
