This electric rear-wheel-drive roadster, which debuted at the Tokyo auto show this month, has a range of about 100 miles and a top speed of 99 mph. The two-seater convertible features twin-lever controls in lieu of a traditional steering wheel and a multiscreen driver display. A production version of the car has been confirmed; however, a gasoline-engine version may hit the market before an all-electric model. The steering wheel will also likely be a more traditional style.

The EV-STER is an exciting new concept sports car unveiled at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show by Honda Motor Company. It is a two-seater with a carbon fiber body to reduce weight. The EV-STER is equipped with a lithium-ion battery and has an output of 78 horsepower. Honda says it sprints from zero to 37 mph in 5.0 seconds and has a range of about 99 miles. Its styling takes cues from the CR-Z and S2000 but the EV-STER is significantly smaller than those cars, it rides on a 91.5-inch wheelbase and is 12 feet long. Honda plans to offer the production version of the car with either a gasoline engine or as a pure electric vehicle.
