NASCAR Driver Leilani Munter Introduces the Inizio Electric Supercar

NASCAR driver turned environmentalist, Leilani Munter, takes time out from the 2011 Detroit Auto Show to introduce Green Energy News to the world’s faster electric car, the Inizio, by Li-Ion Motors. Capable of speeds of up to 170mph (RTX model), the Inizio goes from 0-60mph in 3.4 seconds, faster than it’s competition (Tesla Roadster), which reaches 60mph in just about 3.7 seconds. With a price tag of $130,000 USD, the Inizio certainly isn’t a practical choice for everyone; but just like when Chevy announced the 454ci LS6 engine in 1970, the Inizio marks a new era of American muscle… and it sure looks green.
