<div style="text-align: left; ">In order to raise awareness of the dangers of smoking (or to make cigarettes look even cooler -- we're not sure which) a group of five students at Xi'an University in China have built an <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/ev">all-electric</a> Bugatti Veyron entirely out of old cigarette boxes. This bad boy is the same size as the world-renowned touring car -- a feat which took 10,280 packs of cigarettes and eight months to assemble. While we have no idea what the top speed is, we're guessing it's nowhere near that of the original. Check out the video after the break.</div>

Know what we really love? Tea kettles. The thing is, plenty of them look like there was roughly zero thought put into their design -- and we've all gotten into the habit of accepting those 3 or 4 basic designs offered to us. No more. <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Bugatti/">Bugatti</a>'s got a wholly new approach to boiling <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/water/">water</a> on the horizon, in the form of the Vera. It's beautifully designed, it's got a nice array of electronic timing functions -- but the bells and whistles are just icing on this beautiful, delicious cake. The Vera kettle will be available this September, for around $300. <br /><br />[Via <a href="http://www.unplggd.com/unplggd/vera-electric-kettle-by-casa-bugatti--094071">Unplggd</a>]<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/gadgets/" rel="tag">Misc.

Remember when the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/07/wrightspeed-x1-electric-now-among-worlds-fastest-cars/">Wrightspeed X1 electric car</a> beat both a Ferrari 360 Spyder and Porsche Carrera GT off the line? Well, ex-Cisco and DEC engineer Ian Wright is back with his SR-71 that he says will do 0-60 in a brain-numbing 2.5 seconds. The new electric speed dart should show up in about 18 months and could even get a street-legal version in 36 months. That's a long time to wait, sure, but a faster-than-Bugatti EV at a fraction of the cost could just be worth it.<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/transportation/" rel="tag">Transportation</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/24/wrightspeed-sr-71-electric-car-will-do-0-60-in-2-5-seconds/">Wrightspeed SR-71 electric car will do 0-60 in 2.5 seconds</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Sat, 24 May 2008 03:29:00 EST.
