ELECTRIFYING NEWS!

The Combidrive Mouse car has gone full circle. Electric first with those heavy lead acid batteries, then diesel powered, achieving a world record of 568mpg (or 202km per litre), in 1997 (search for "mouse on top gear" to see road test). Now the Mouse is fitted with a DC brushless motor powered by a lithium ion battery. We won't be going for a world record just yet!
