No, it's a TWO year old golf cart on "E."

That Tokyo University professor Yoichi Hori sure is good at PR because that one-seater "COMS CV" shown in the picture above driven was completed in 2004.

(Read more about how EDLC "ultra" capacitors work here. )

The reason for the picture now is that he just got the capacitors fully charged!

Here you go. Use at your own risk. Watch out for cowboys and hoverboards.
