Zero Air Pollution, which claims to manufacture the first "commercially viable electric car", has made its first delivery to Boston.

Doug Hart, a Boston investment manager, took delivery of the first Xebra sedan, a car that runs strictly on electricity, moves at a top speed of 40 miles per hour but produces 98 percent fewer emissions than regular cars, according to a statement from Zero Air Pollution, the company that makes the Xebra.

In the statement, which also does not say exactly when the car was purchased, Hart says he bought one because " I learned one of the best things you can do for the environment is to either drive an electric car or invest in an electric car company."

The Xebra retails for less than $10,000, seats up to four people and must be ordered via Zero Air Pollution's web site.
