Top 20 green cars we wish we could buy today, Number 17: Ken Okuyama K.08

Posted Apr 22nd 2008 at 1:03PM by Jeremy Korzeniewski

Ken Okuyama, formerly of General Motors, Porsche and Pininfarina, hopes to offer a vehicle known as the K.08. It's supposed to be powered by lithium ion batteries and be made from lightweight aluminum and carbon fiber. We'd expect it to be pretty pricey if it ever does go on sale and be offered initially in Japan only. Call us dreamers, but we want it in the U.S. too!
