Note the last line in this article.

Imagine, a Maya 300 capable of Highway speeds available before the end of 2009.

I like the possibilities!

Qutoed from "Car Sharing Goes Electric"

Gupta said the Maya 300 is perfect for city dwellers and the car share program is a great way to expose people to a “game-changer” in urban transportation. Although most of the major automakers are developing electric cars using lithium-ion batteries, he said the Maya 300 “is a normal lithium-ion car you can buy today.”

Well, sort of. The car is available only to fleets. Gupta said fleet use is a great proving ground for the technology and can lead to further improvements, and selling to fleets provides the volume needed to bring costs down. Electrovaya is working on a vehicle capable of freeway speeds. Gupta said it will be based on the Maya 300 and “I would really like to have it out this calendar year.”
