Interesting electric cars
Even though I'm something of a human-caused global warming skeptic, there's enough other reasons to be in favor of getting off fossil fuels for me to pay close attention to developments in that area. One interesting new all-electric car is being developed in Detroit, and appears to compete with existing GM electric vehicles.
Even though these golf-cart-class electric cars aren't quite ready for cross-country road trips, they could be useful in a lot of settings, such as short-distance errand-running, nearby commutes, and, with a bit of creativity, longer commutes if they could be somehow integrated with subways or commuter railroads; these guys would get you to and from the station.
And if going 25 mph isn't exciting, you may save enough money with your little electric car to afford one of these.
