AUCTION RUNS MAY 24 - JUNE 3

Auction is live! BID NOW!
Opening bid is $25,000 PRE-QUALIFY TO BID
This ZERO is covered in a special
Indy Goes Green wrap. Winner will
have choice of available colors.

What makes a ZERO different from the dozens of other electric vehicles which have gone before it? ZERO is not an
imitation. ZERO is different. ZERO uses Lithium batteries, leaving behind old Lead or Nickel Cadmium technology.

In technical terms it has been conceived as a sports car, a miniature sports car which offers four driving modes: RACE: for a
track feel, RAIN: for when the road is wet, STANDARD: for daily use and ECONOMY: for increased driving time/ autonomy.

ZERO is ecological. The chassis, produced in the Tazzari Group foundries, is 100% recyclable aluminium, while many
internal and external parts are also made of aluminium, an extremely viable and high quality material. The seats are
covered with eco-leather. The batteries, made specifically for ZERO, will be extremely long-lasting and reliable.

ZERO is also a sports version of a city car reaching speeds of up to 55 mph with 0 - 30 mph acceleration in less than 5
seconds. The design derives from the field of motor sports: centrally positioned engine and low centre of gravity. When
you drive ZERO, it feels as if you're behind the wheel of a sports car: rear-wheel drive, wide wheelbase, powerful brakes.

  • The winner and their guest will be flown to New York City for a special “ZERO
    Comes to America” event where they will be presented with ZERO Number One
  • Two-night hotel accommodations and meals are included
  • Transportation to and from the airport
  • i Drive Green will provide FREE shipping of the ZERO from New York City to
    anywhere in the continental U.S.*
  • An i Drive Green racing suit and helmet signed by Nelson Philippe

*The bidding is open worldwide, but any winner outside the continental U.S. will be responsible for all shipping costs.

Today, the environment is playing a big role in our future. Everybody speaks about it but in reality
very few things are done and sustained. I wanted to develop a concept around my career that can contribute to us all becoming more green.

i Drive Green starts with Indy Goes Green – I hope you will join us there and enjoy learning better
driving techniques that will increase your driving pleasure, save you money and, most importantly,
help improve our air quality for the benefit of everyone.
