Dean Kamen combines Stirling with electric->

Submitted by Colin Smith
Colin Smith writes "Dean Kamen, (inventor of the Segway) has combined a Stirling engine with a battery electric vehicle based on the Ford Think to provide a fully decoupled electric hybrid car which can run on any fuel which can provide enough heat to run the Stirling generator.

Ford Think:
Top speed: 55mph
0-30: 6.5 seconds
Range: 60 miles on battery
