The New York Times recently published an article about high-performance hybrids — some prototypes and some real cars that are currently on the street. One prototype is this Enigma, which is a sleek roadster built like a Lotus Elise that will one day sell for $185,000. It's a prototype but its maker, Jim Burns, believes it's the future of hybrids. "We’ve got to produce a car that makes 14 year old boys excited," he told the New York Times Magazine. "We got to have got to have the squealing. The smoking. The tires popping off". :: New York Times via Eco.PSFK
