e-Wolf e2 – The Electric Lambo

by Jay Garrett on October 2, 2009

w-Wolfe-Wolf have dipped their toes into Italian supercar design with their latest plug ‘n’ play sports car.

The e2 seems to borrow heavily from the likes of the Lamborghini Reventón and Ferrari Enzo – which can never be a bad thing can it?

536 eco-friendly horses hit the road via one 134-horsepower electric motor at each corner which manages to dish out 738 lb-ft of torque (1,000 Nm).

All that adds to a 0-60 dash in well under four seconds right up to a capped (possibly) top speed of 155 mph.

The juice is stored in a lithium ion battery pack composed of 84 flat cells from CERIO.

e-Wolf reckons that the speedy green machine could sprint along for around 187 miles before needing recharge of just 30 minutes.

Now, I’m thinking that a ’super charger’ is going to be needed for that swift a charge.

Production of this angular beauty is pencilled in for 2011

asus designo 3Remember that binary inspired Asus Designo monitor that I was salivating over at the start of the month?

Yeah that range of hi-res, quick response LCD panels that measure in at a very slender 16.5mm thin.

Good news folks!

The Designo range will be getting a full UK launch in a week or so and I’ve even got a price for the 23.6 inch model – £244.

That matches in with the rumoured €299 price tag for the flagship Asus Designo MS monitor over in Italy.

This is also great news as that should surely mean that the 20 incher and the rest of the range will be cheaper than that :)

More as I get it!!

The front wheel is driven by an electric motor giving a range of 9km and a [...]

If you’re one of those people with an eye for design and believes that everything in a room should co-ordinate you must get pretty peeved with the choice of colours out there for televisions.
How do you co-ordinate either black, silver or white with that funky patterend wallpaper?
Well, now you just need to look at Loewe’s [...]
