Here's a tough sell on eBay: an old electric postal delivery van that only gets eight miles of range. It could go up to 40 miles on a charge, but that would cost about $1,600 for a new battery on top of the $2,400 asking price. The vehicle up for discussion is a Kurbwatt electric van, which runs ...

You can sell the car, but not the reservation for it. That's the gist of a Green Car Reports post about Tesla Model S reservation holders looking to "sell" their spots in line on eBay. With the half-dozen or so reservations for the all-electric sedan being posted for sale on the auction site, ...

Just because Tesla Motors hasn't made a profit yet doesn't mean early buyers of its cars can't. At least, that seems to be what one future owner of a Tesla Model S Signature Series is saying by putting his ordered-but-not-yet-delivered electric vehicle on eBay. The seller, who is based in ...

It's been said that God rides a Harley. Now we have a Toyota Prius that tows them. uShip, a community of about 250,000 registered carriers, posted a blog item last week about a Prius driver who uses his hybrid to tow motorcycles across the U.S. Adam Winters is the man behind Green Technology ...

Yes, Elon, there's a new way to buy Teslas on eBay. The world's biggest online auction company has launched a new site dedicated all things alt-fuel in an attempt to attract more car shoppers feeling stung by rising gas prices. eBay's "Green Driving" site lets the anti-gas-guzzler set break ...

OK, so you could buy a Tesla Roadster and have enough left over for a Chevy Volt instead, but sometimes originality and a can't-miss paint job is worth it. That's one way to consider this auction on eBay, where the seller is pitching a battery-electric powered replica of a 1937 Cord "Coffin ...

Want a super-sleek plug-in hybrid 2 1/2 ton subcompact sports sedan capable of going 0-60 in under six seconds while still managing at least 32 miles on pure electrons... before it starts slurping up gasoline at 20 mpg? Of course you do. Want to pay $95,000 for the base model? Maybe not so ...

When one thinks of advanced technology, the AMC Gremlin rarely (if ever) pops to mind. In fact, these days, unless you happen to be watching re-runs of the first season of True Blood, you likely wouldn't think of the ...

It's not an original Electrovair, but it is a 1966 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa that was converted to all-electric drive and it is currently up for auction on eBay. We're not sure what the performance specs for this car are, but it looks good, thanks to fresh marina blue paint, a new interior and ...

For those of you who can't wait for a factory-built electric vehicle, and can't swing the cash for a Tesla Roadster, a seller on eBay is offering up a recently converted 2001 Chrysler Sebring. This is the previous-generation Sebring, before the design went from plain to hideous. As this is ...

The last time a Messerschmitt KR200 was mentioned in our pages, it was in conjunction with a new minicar book published in 2007. It's not surprising that we don't write about the car that often – it hasn't been produced since the 1960s. But the minicar design, beautiful lines and three ...

Fans of the Chevrolet Volt have been waiting patiently for nearly three years now for the first extended range electric car to debut. Apparently a Columbus, Ohio Chevrolet dealer is looking to take advantage of that by putting up a listing ...

Over the last several years, we've seen numerous conversions of Porsches to battery electric vehicles, but this may well be the prettiest. Most of the previous Porsche EVs have been based on either the 911 or 914, but this seller ...

How much is too much for a neighborhood electric vehicle? If you're talking about a somewhat unknown NEV that looks like a smart fortwo, can go about 60 miles per charge at a speed of 28 mph and are currently located in Alberta, Canada, $4,500 is too much. That's the lesson we take away from an ...

So far, Honda has been one of the few automakers that has remained steadfast in not pursuing plug-in electric or hybrid vehicles, at least publicly. That, of course, doesn't preclude anyone else from going down that path. In fact, the idea of a plug-in Honda is certainly not a new ...
