"The Eliica (which stands for Electric Lithium-Ion Car) is the brainchild of Hiroshi Shimizu. The project&amp;#039;s goal is to test the capabilities of electric vehicles and exceed 250mph, the current record for a street-legal gas powered vehicle. The car&amp;#039;s most notable feature is the fact that it has 8 wheels, each of which houses an 80hp electric motor. Furthermore, the Eliica has a 0-100 km/h (62 mph) acceleration speed of 4 seconds - that&amp;#039;s better than the Tesla, a Corvette, and even a Porsche. Two vehicles exist at the moment, each costing a total of $320,000. The team has recently announced that they intend to build 200 units and are currently looking for corporate sponsorship."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
