The Wheel, a new idea in electric cars
Most of the "inventions" that I have been seeing in the green car area basically keep the main functions of the car intact. Just subsystems are replaced. Like an electric or hybrid engine for a gas engine.
From Denmark comes a completely new approach: e-Traction Products Page. Take the electric motor and put it INSIDE the wheel. No transmition. No gears. No central motor (although the prototype has a diesel generator to power the motors). Very interesting idea. Make a self propelled wheel.
