My review of the Nice Mega City electric car that I blogged about early in September is finally online. It was delayed while we were busy launching the new bigger and better BusinessGreen.com web site - go and have a look at the site if you haven't yet spotted it. It's ace. I'm biased, obviously, but it is ace nonetheless.

Last week I was due to test a rival electric runabout - the Elettrica from Future Vehicles - but alas the demo car was apparently pranged by an over-eager customer during a prior test drive.

While I'm waiting for the Elettrica to be repaired, perhaps I should follow the advice of a friend of a friend, who last night insisted that I really ought to be testing Powerisers as a practical alternative to the car for green commuting. For the uninitiated, Powerisers are a kind of cross between stilts and pogo sticks. I'm not so sure that I'm really cut out for Poweriser commuting...
