When an electric potential of 50 volts is applied across the film, the particles line up and the glass turns transparent.
Conducting polymers are known as intelligent materials with the unique behaviour of trapping an ion into their structure and release the ion by an electric potential.
The maximum electric load potential of the high-voltage battery is 480 kW, which is an absolute best value in the automotive sector.

FORBES: Electric Cars and the Power Grid: How Are They Coming Together?
SEEview seamlessly integrates EMS, DMS, GIS, OMS, AMI, CIS and other systems to help utilities respond quickly to disruptive conditions such as rapidly rising wholesale market prices, the unexpected lack of renewable energy availability, potential emissions violations or electric vehicle recharging hot spots.
Unlike other areas identified by the Economist, where technological process has indeed slowed, and economic growth has gone along with it, there may be tremendous potential remaining in the electric energy industry precisely because it has remained relatively bottled up and stagnant for most of the last 100 years.
FORBES: The Economist: Innovation Almost Dead. Perhaps Not So In Electricity
Although I have not done this research for electric vehicles, I think it would be worth talking to cross-section of 100 potential customers to ask them whether they see an electric vehicle as a cost-effective means of transportation.
FORBES: Is A123 Electric Battery A Waste of $263 Million in Government Funds?
The car is important because it shows the potential for high-performance electric luxury cars, but an extremely limited number of them will be made.
FORBES: Mercedes' Neon Electric Gullwing a Sight for Sore Eyes
Value charging is a unique feature that harnesses the power of cloud computing to automatically charge the vehicle when utility rates are lowest, thus helping to minimize the cost to charge the vehicle and the potential ownership costs of an electric vehicle.
The markets were chosen for several reasons including current hybrid purchasing trends, the acceptance of electric vehicle technology by local governments and the potential to collaborate with utility companies.
