MIRA's H4V 'plugless plug-in hybrid' is surprisingly clever

Filed under: Transportation We're surprised this hasn't been though up before, which means it probably isn't as simple as it sounds. MIRA's got a new plug-in hybrid in the works that skips the whole plug aspect. Instead of plugging the whole car into an outlet, you can pull out any of the three battery packs in the trunk and hook 'em into the wall.

They're calling the system H4V, and are powering the unit on lithium ion phosphate batteries.
