New energy for electic car



















Investors are pumping new energy into the long-struggling Norwegian electric car ‘Think." They aim to get a new version of the little car on the road soon, charged by new markets for environmentally friendly vehicles.

The new "Think City" is, as its name implies, meant for city driving. It features new battery technology borrowed from the submarine world that can allow the car to drive 180 kilometers between each recharging. In the winter, with snow tires mounted and heaters running, driving distance is estimated at 90 kilometers between rechargings.

The car still features just two seats and a plastic chassis as in the earlier models, but it's built to Ford's standards and exceeds both European and American vehicle requirements.

Stolen cars fom Norway found in Iraq














More and more cars stolen in Norway are turning up in Iraq, with some of These three cars stolen in Norway were found in northern Iraq. They were photographed at the Turkish border, waiting to get sent back to Norway.

The car thefts in Norway are thus being linked to terrorist activity and the financing of terrorism.
Many of the cars carry large loans, meaning their theft amounts to a swindle against the lender financing them or the car's insurance company. Nearly 60 stolen cars worth as much as NOK 20 million are believed to have been sent to northern Iraq via Syria and Turkey as early as 2004.
Around 10,000 cars are stolen in Norway every year, but only about one in five are ever recovered. The rest of the cases are left unresolved, meaning huge payouts for the insurance companies.

Light out for electric car


Management at long-struggling Think Nordic, which once made the popular Think City electric cars, conceded Thursday that it was effectively bankrupt. The company looks headed for liquidation, barring a surprise infusion of much-needed cash.

Why are electric vehicles important?
To break our oil addiction, we need to embrace existing solutions such as electric vehicles. Electric vehicles offer a glimpse into what a completely petroleum-free auto fleet could look like. EVs plugged into solar panels have allowed drivers across California to live free from fossil fuels.
