Pacific Rim Design Center, of Honolulu, Hawaii, will produce a
solar-electric 2-passenger vehicle in 1996. This vehicle, based on the
same chassis as the 3-wheeled Metro Rocket, will provide a range of 120
miles and can be re-charged with 10 hours of direct sunlight. Empty
weight of the Metro Rocket (including batteries) is expected to be under
1200 pounds, according to CEO Jeff Dunan. The solar EV Metro Rocket
will meet the anticipated California air quality standards
for vehicle manufacturers in 1997. For more information, contact
Pacific Rim's web page at http://www.teleport.com/~dtpdx/prdchome.htm or
call (808) 334-4108.
