City takes a look at electric cars

Updated:

SARASOTA - Several electric cars and trucks were on display outside Sarasota City Hall Monday afternoon.

Miles Electric Vehicles produces small cars that reach a top speed of 25 miles an hour.  Most are sold to businesses, colleges and cities working to go green...like Sarasota.

"I actually had the chance to talk briefly with Mayor Palmer, and this is the way they're headed.  They want more information on the ability to go green in different areas, and automotive is an area they're looking at strongly," says Rusty Evans of Miles Electric Vehicles.

Prices for their small electric cars start at about $19,000.
