We are not talking mopeds. The question was do you know of any American cars in the 600 cc range. Not talking bikes, mopeds, or motorcycles. Talking cars that 4 people can ride in normal traffic as found in the United States. Please name a couple. Wives and children will be in them also.
There are none. There would be none in Japan either if it weren't a regulation. The electric iMiEV will blow the doors off the gasoline Japanese version of the car (which as I'm sure you know is physically a bit smaller too, chalk it up to our large American asses I guess...). Zero to 60 in ~9 seconds for the electric USA version, not 'measured by calendar.'
regardless, I just picked the iMiEV out of the air since it's the cheapest and supports quick charging. The Leaf is a valid example also as it also supports the CHAdeMO standard. And of course Tesla is doing their own electric Superhiway thing, but they are in a different league.
