Kinetic Cars
These vehicles are different from your conventional Hybrid or electric car. This kinetic car allows you to charge the battery when you apply the brakes going down hills. Here in Kentucky, where I currently live, would be an ideal place to have one these. I live between two of the highest points in the state.
I had never heard of this type of technology being applied to electric cars, Until I caught an episode of D-News; where they give a full breakdown of how the process works.
D-News always does an incredible job giving detailed information on whatever topic they are covering. I recommend subscribing to them on YouTube; you will learn something new with every post! Here is the video, with the full explanation. Give it a watch!
Getting better every day!
Thanks for your time!
For more cool stuff, follow me @intrepidthinker. Here are a couple of my latest posts. See what you think!
- Have you heard of Face2Face? Real-time face capture. (Alright, this is getting out of hand!)
- This is what English sounds like to someone who doesn't speak it. (video)
- Five guys volunteer to stand under a mid-air atomic bomb detonation! (This blew my mind)(video)
- This woman was raped, then did a TED Talk with the man who did it!

Actually it is not a really new technology. I am sure you have heard about KERS system in formula 1, same thing and it has been around for quite a while now.
I just had never seen it before. It was new to me. Thanks for your comment.

First time when I hear about this!
Like a wind up toy.
I drive one of those cars. The first model of its kind was sold in 1999. Called Honda Insight I also drive it in Kentucky hills it works great. Gets 60mpg
Really? 99? Been around longer than I expected. 60 mpg is impressive, I would love to have one! Thanks for commenting neighbor. Haha
