Electric cars are becoming more of a concept

Recently we witnessed the completion of the VOLTA by the GM, Fiat 500 and now the Venturi Voltage concept car presented at the NAIAS 2010 (image below).

All these cars have in common the use of more or less efficient batteries to power the electric motor.
I think the real revolution will happen when you do not think only to accumulate energy, but also how to produce it. A car can increase its autonomy in a much greater than the average current only if it is equipped with systems of energy production. Examples could be producing energy from the sun, the use of air currents that are formed during the movement of the car itself and the conversion into electricity of heat developed by electric motors.

I believe that technological innovation in this sector is just beginning and maybe this could lead to something completely innovative rethinking the concept of mobility.
