BALTIMORE — The nation’s first all- electric car-sharing program debuted here Tuesday, with manufacturer Electrovaya hoping urban residents seeking to go green and curious tourists will take the concept for a spin.

Ten Maya 300s will be available starting today through the new car-sharing website . A two-hour trip costs $29. The car gets its juice from a regular 110-volt outlet. Electrovaya’s battery relies on Exxon Mobil battery technology that allows for the units to operate at higher temperatures with a reduced risk of meltdown. The Associated Press
