B-more Electric

If I had to guess which city had implemented this program one of the last cities on my list would have been Baltimore.

From Wired...

Baltimore has rolled out an electric car sharing program featuring 10 small city cars that deliver as much as 120 miles per charge, and the people behind the program hope to see it catch on in other cities.

Battery maker Electrovaya is providing its Maya 300 for rent through the Maryland Science Center in the city’s Inner Harbor district. City residents and tourists can tool around in four-door hatchbacks available online at AltCar.org for as little as $7.50 an hour.

“Baltimore is first, but this is a model other cities could copy,” Vin Reiner, president and CEO of the science center, said Wednesday. “There are several cities that would benefit from an electric car share program.”

It's cheaper than a taxi and far better for the environment. Nice going Baltimore!
