Yes, she did it again: Daryl Hannah shows off her new biodiesel El Camino
Auto Blog: Biodiesel , Green Daily Click above and scroll down to watch the video If you love something, do it again. After Daryl Hannah sold her first biodiesel El Camino for $15,600 a year ago, she said she would convert the Trans Am she drove in “Kill Bill” to electric power . That never happened, and at the recently-concluded National Biodiesel Conference & Expo, Hannah showed off her new ride: another biodiesel El Camino. Hannah says that her new ride (same as the old ride) only drinks sustainable biodiesel. This makes sense for many reasons, including that she is a big supporter of the Sustainable Biodiesel Alliance and that new sustainable biodiesel standards were announced at the Expo.You can see Hannah show off her car as part of the Expo’s Biodiesel Vehicle Showcase in a video after the jump, but be warned that the audio is less than pleasing.

VIDEO: What’s it like to drive the prototype of the world’s fastest production motorcycle?
Auto Blog: EV/Plug-in , On Two Wheels , USA Click above for high-res image gallery of the electric Mission One sport bike If you’re like some of us here at AutoblogGreen, a few minutes after reading all about the new Mission One , the world’s fastest production electric motorcycle , you were daydreaming about sitting in its saddle waiting for the light to change from red. In the next lane, some guy on a Suzuki Hayabusa was revving his engine like crazy, preparing to let out his clutch. Perhaps you imagined giving the guy a nod of the helmet and an easy smile knowing the silence of your steed and your relaxed attitude was intimidating in its own way. What might really happen when the light turns green? The Hayabusa is famously fast and can produce around the same amount of torque as the electric newcomer. However, as Mission Motors CEO, Forrest Deuth, reminded us when we spoke the other day, the gas-powered bike produces its torque at thousands of RPMs, while the Mission One has it waiting for you from the get go. The result, we’re told, is a very controllable launch, followed by extremely quick acceleration, undisturbed by the shifting of gears. Compare that to the uncertainty of dropping a clutch on a screaming traditional sport bike. Of course, no one has yet ridden the bike that was unveiled yesterday, so can this reverie be believed? Hit the jump for our answer and video testimonials.

Washington 2009: picture fun with the Saturn Flextreme
Auto Blog: EV/Plug-in , Hybrid , Saturn , AutoblogGreen Exclusive , Green Daily , Washington DC Auto Show Click above for high-res image gallery of the Saturn Flextreme One of the guilty pleasures available during the quiet period before the public days of an auto show is taking pictures when no one is around. We’ve seen the Saturn Flextreme (and it’s Opel cousin ) before, but haven’t seen it spinning around on the stand all by itself, just asking for a few shutter clicks. We obliged, of course, and present you with these images. We got a little carried away with the long shutter speeds and liked the trippy effects they created. Oh, to have our fisheye with us at all times. Technical details on this Volt-like plug-in hybrid concept can be found here . This post is all about the pics. Enjoy.
