BMW will introduce an electric version of its iconic Mini at the Los Angeles auto show in November.

Its electric heart beats out 204 horsepower and pound-feet of torque, which should be plenty to make it fast (the run to 60 mph should take about eight seconds and the top speed has been limited to 95 mph. The entire car weighs in at slightly more than 3,200 pounds and regenerative braking is used to extend the range (brake energy charges the battery pack).

Overall, slightly fewer Europeans report receiving an SMS
ad, with a decline from 112 million in August 2007 to 110 million in August
2008. Advertisements for restaurants and food also boast
the highest level of response, with 16 percent of those receiving an advert
for a restaurant responding and 13 percent of those receiving an offer for
food, such as grocery coupons, responding. Meanwhile, the number of consumers
responding to an offer for a mobile product or service remained flat, at four
percent. “While the majority of SMS adverts are still for mobile products and
services, the mix is beginning to shift toward consumer goods and services,”
observed Alistair Hill, analyst, comScore. “Mobile advertisers are beginning
to show a higher level of sophistication in their targeting efforts, as the
targeting criterion is no longer ‘has mobile phone’ but is based on knowledge
of consumers’ tastes and behaviors.
