GreenGoTek's lightweight compact
5 of 12 from Photos: Plug-in vehicles in Motor City
GreenGo Tek is a Michigan company formed last year to produce affordable electric vehicles. This car called the Cozmo is a neighborhood area vehicle, which means that it's limited to a speed of 25 miles per hour because of transportation regulations. But the chassis and battery pack allow it to go up to 45 miles per hour if a pending "medium speed vehicle" classification is approved, according to the company. The range is 60 miles on lead-acid batteries, which allows it to be relatively cheap--the retail price is $18,000.
