I was watching the
Today Show this morning and they unveiled the ultimate green station car. The Peapod from Chrysler is an electronic car that runs 30 miles on a 6 hour charge. It uses no gas and produces no carbon. They estimate it costs 2 cents per mile. With a maximum speed of 25 MPH, it is purposed for around town errands making this the perfect station car.
While Peapod is taking advantage of Earth Day to announce and promote their ultimate Green machine, Ford is hitting the road with an
online marketing blitz to hype its new subcompact, the Fiesta. They have given away 100 cars to social-networking "experts" for six months who will be using Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and other social online media to spread the word on their experience behind the wheel of the Fiesta. It should be interesting to monitor the success of their new age marketing initiative, the
Fiesta Movement.
