I postulated on here years ago about the amazing cars EV tech would eventually bring to driving enthusiasts, from memory, motor in each wheel for infinitely variable torque vectoring [2 or 4 wheel drive] - focused on driving and fun and not held back by petrol engine and transmission packaging complexity and costs...

Bandit Monaco - looks pretty close to my imagineering.

Bit like an ICE car driven 100% flat out.

My mates modified M4 600bhp is well below 10mpg when really tanking it.

Similarly my 380bhp S1 Exige track consumption was similar.

Oh I agree but if you are promoting it as a track car why mention the range?

Edit - from the link "Race all day with 0 carbon footprint"

Also their full quote makes more sense vs my comment redface "with a range of 250 miles on a single charge. That's more than an entire F1 race"

Where are you getting the motor in each wheel from OP? Looks like a standard Model S single motor RWD setup according to their website?

Because it’s also an electric car.

No mention of recharge time/capabilities? The helmet looks interesting
