<div align="left">Some new details have emerged about <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/linc+volt">LincVolt</a>, Neil Young's latest foray into green auto, and we're more than happy to pass 'em along to you. According to our friends at <em>Autoblog</em>, the LincVolt shares more than just a name with <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/26/chevy-volts-powertrain-and-recharging-clarified/">GM's Volt</a>, using a CNG engine to power the electric drive system so that the wheels are driven by the batteries alone. The car currently gets 50 MPG, but the LincVolt team are aiming at 100 MPG and a system that will achieve "over-unity" (generating more energy than is put in). The company has also launched a new website which will provide live data from Shakey's very own vehicle (voltage, battery charge, speed, etc.) as well as the typical blogs and forums. If that isn't enough, we've even included a video Neil driving his car, just in case you've never seen anybody drive a car before. Check it out after the break.</div>

Sure, you've got a couple Neil Young CDs and maybe a battered Farm-Aid T-shirt, but if you're really into ol' Shakey, you'll pick up one of his hotrod electric Lincoln conversions. Yep, Neil's started a company called Linc Volt to develop electric car technologies, and he's already converted his own personal '59 Lincoln in an attempt to win the Automotive X-Prize -- a process that's the subject of an upcoming documentary. Young says he's mostly focused on developing the tech -- Linc Volt will provide instructions as well as performing the actual conversions. Sure, we're into it -- just make sure it's got one of those <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/14/fisker-karma-hybrid-sports-car-to-generate-motor-noise-through-e/">rumbling speaker systems</a> and we'll take two.<br /><br />[Via <a href="http://www.autobloggreen.com/2008/11/04/neil-young-has-heart-of-gold-will-make-you-a-linc-volt/">AutoblogGreen</a>]<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/2008/11/04/neil-young-starts-linc-volt-electric-car-conversion-company/">Neil Young starts Linc Volt electric car conversion company</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Tue, 04 Nov 2008 13:44:00 EST.
