The EV Cup was a racing series that was to feature electric vehicles.  The series was originally scheduled to start in 2011, then was postponed to 2012 because of a delay in developing the race cars.  Unfortunately, the series was never able to make it off the ground.  The series was to have races in both the United States and the United Kingdom.
