Medium Speed Vehicles

Medium Speed Vehicles are a relatively new class of vehicles allowed on the roads of some states in the United States. A Medium Speed Vehicles are similar to a neighborhood electric vehicle except that Medium Speed Vehicle is legally allowed to travel up to 35 miles per hour. The creation of Medium Speed Vehicles began in Montana when Brian Schweitzer signed SB0185 to create the first Medium Speed Vehicle regulation. [http://www.evworld.com/article.cfm?storyid=1259] Minnesota, Oklahoma, Montana, Washington, and Tennessee all now have laws that allow for such Medium Speed Vehicles. [http://www.evworld.com/news.cfm?newsid=18543] Additional states are considering such measures.

Many of the existing neighborhood electric vehicles such as the ZENN, the Ford Think Neighbor, and the Kurrent can easily be modified to travel at 35mph.
