Looks fantastic to my eyes, interesting that it’d be heavier if 2WD (well kind of!).

I’d be happy with 50-60kWh, RWD, 1400kg and a measly 400bhp in the production version personally - will be fascinating to see what they come up with.

As an EV convert and someone who eulogizes regularly about them as daily transport I still struggle with them as a sportscar.

For the vast majority of people a 2 seater car like this is going to be a play thing and as with crazy hyper cars like the Rimac the idea of one driven by electricity leaves me cold despite the performance possibilities.

No way with a decent size battery it would it be lighter than a Cayman unless they make it out of carbon fiber and price it well over £100k and even if they did I can't see the appeal over a 911 GT3 or Cayman GT4 personally.

We'll have no choice at some point of course, but until then it's not something that interests me.
