RTEV is ready to take your order for a Wheego Whip low-speed electric vehicle. This sub-$19,000 NEV features remote keyless entry, air conditioning and an mp3 stereo system as standard. The Whip will be available in white, red, blue, black, or silver. Deliveries are scheduled for this May and the Whip should qualify you for a 10 percent federal tax credit on the purchase price. The good news? “When the Whip is eventually certified and sold as a full speed car, the Federal Tax credit will be $7,500.” So, the Whip’s 60 mph capability might someday be usable here in the States. And, should you buy a low-speed Whip today and want to upgrade to the faster car later, Wheego will make you a deal. “The trade in value of your LSV Whip will be the net purchase price of your car less 2% for every month that you have owned your car. And you will receive a $7,500 federal tax rebate when you buy the full speed Whip.” Cool. Also, this is not a smart fortwo , no matter what it looks like. If you’re interested in getting a Whip, feel free to convince a friend to buy one, too. Wheego offers a referral program called “Wheego Friendzee” that will give you and your friend $250 if you both buy. To learn more about the Wheego Whip, click here .
