Hosted by Tom and Ray Magliozzi of NPR's Car Talk ; narrator, John Lithgow.
"Tom Magliozzi and brother Ray take a light-hearted but shrewd look at America's four-wheeled future. As "Click and Clack" they explore everything from a glitzy Detroit auto show to the earnest homebuilders of Boston's AltWheels Festival, from a hydrogen-powered bus fleet in Iceland to a green think tank in Colorado. They check out hybrids that plug into a household outlet and an electronic sports car that goes 0-to-60 in 4 seconds. Tom and Ray meet experts in biofuels and lithium batteries, mixing sharp observation, slapstick, and probing interviews. With soaring prices at the pump and worries about the global greenhouse, it's no laughing matter. But the car guys turn an expert, comic eye on the promise and pitfalls of tomorrow's auto tech."--Container.
