[DUG-TO] Drupalmobile - Help make it a reality

[Andre Molnar]

Alison,

I really wish the car was electric.  There is talk of an electric
version coming out some time in the future.  I will say its fuel
consumption is half that of my current car.  I don't often drive in the
city (thank you TTC) - but I do visit family in Hamilton weekly.

The Cube does however have something they call "electric assist" (Some
marketing mumbojumbo).  Its not a full hybrid, but there is an electric
motor for the rear wheels that kicks in under certain conditions.

And yeah - it one heck of a boxy car.  I saw them on the road when I was
in Japan a couple of years ago.  They certainly catch the eye.
