Creating it’s own AC power and qualifying for PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) tax credits the Imagine PS™ NEV from HumanCar Inc could be the future of NEVs - Neighborhood Electric Vehicles. NEVs are limited to 35mph on average in the USA and may be used legally in off-highway or ‘neighborhood’ areas. PS’ stands for power station as it generates electricity and may be charged to and from any outlet,

The vehicle uses human power as well as electric motors and may be used as a backup power generation unit. The Imagine PS™ NEV is made of aluminum like an airplane and has regenerative brakes, dual electric motors and an advanced chassis design, patented by HumanCar Inc.

The concept for the car took place 40 years ago by Chief Scientist/Engineer Charles Samuel Greenwood P.E. An entire line of exotic HC vehicles and products exist; fully manual versions, advanced 189mph research race cars and small home power generation units all designed and manufactured by HumanCar Inc.

The Imagine PS NEV retails for $15,500 and the company is taking reservations via its website
