Electric MINI spotted in Munich, expected at 2008 LA Auto Show


(Source:  Engadget via caremagazine.co.uk)

Check it, Cooper fans -- that electric MINI we've been sporadically hearing about is for real, and we've seen the spy shots that prove it. Car
has hosted up a slew of non-blurry (gasp!) snaps of the eco-friendly
whip cruising around Munich, and just in case the complete absence of
an exhaust pipe wasn't evidence enough, maybe the "Hybrid Test Vehicle"
decals will make you a believer. Also of note, we're now hearing that
the car is on track for a 2008 Los Angeles motor show appearance, which
jibes quite well with the purported summer 2009 US launch.
