Giving a new meaning to the word horsepower
Leave it to the colloboration between Japanese wackiness and the Italian efficiency to create an electric car so quiet its a danger on the roads to pedestrians and other cars. With the addition of a sound track, the car is now safe on the roads, although pedestrians hearing the car now might be surprised to see the Girasole car approaching instead of a horse, considering that the sound track that plays is horse hooves, not the whir of an engine.
One would think that the Italians could come up with a better sounding track, F1 car maybe? [Read Reuters]
