VIDEO: Tazzari Zero prototype gets driven like it's stolen
A little while ago we showed you some renderings of the upcoming Zero being developed by the Tazzari Group in Italy. While the only thing we learned about it since then is that it might be added to the growing stable of electric cars available from Britain's NICE Car Company, a video appears to have been leaked onto the intertubez of a partially-built Zero hooning about a parking lot. Although some medium speed electric vehicles might promise sporty performance, the Tazzari Zero might actually deliver. Its top speed is only about 55 mph but it seems to accelerate nicely and the driver seems to sling it through the turns with apparent ease. If you watch closely, you'll also see another of the two-seaters sitting pretty in the parking lot. This one has fenders and possibly doors and we think looks much better than the original renderings. Better check it out soon though. The video is titled, "Stolen T-Zero prototype video clip" and if that's accurate, it may be removed. Hit the jump for all the Italian parking lot hotrodding action.

Nice is an understatement! This is a lot more than Nice. This little Number is Nice on your pocket, but Nasty on the tyres, Neat around corners, Nifty in the traffic and at last a genuine Newcomer making News on the web, soon to hit the road!

I have ridden the prototype and i can tell you it is steaming hot !
acceleration, handling, traction, brakes - everything is well balanced.
Aim of the producers is to create a true sportscar - so to say a mini electro Gallardo, and from what i have seen this is it. First Italian electric thoroughbred.

Why are people worried about not hearing an electric car? I heard that just fine.
