TH!NK To Introduce Electric Car That Charges In 15 Minutes

By Aziz Ali on February 23, 2010

Electric vehicle enthusiasts, TH!NK, erupted into the news last year, when they were rescued from bankruptcy. The Norwegian company has been making steady progress, with its production in Uusikaupunki, Finland and with the support of Valmet automotive, which is overseeing engineering and manufacturing.

Recently, TH!NK announced that they will be partnering with California-based Aerovironment to bring to the world a car that fully charges within a mere 15 minutes. While they are imaging that the average customer will have a charging station back at home, this innovation is aimed at targeting commercial fleets which might need to charge intermittently throughout the day.
