1 mean electric

[DigitalHeadShot]

Imagine if you will for a moment your sitting at a stop light and a small fire engine red electric commuter car pulls up next to you. The ones you would only imagine Rick Moranis driving on the set of Honey I shrunk the kids. The car has a the back seat filled with blue prints and small tin can lunch pale. So you look over past your beautiful girlfriend in the passenger seat only to laugh and point at this car you would hope to only see at a circus and expect 45 bright colored, white faced clowns to come pouring out smiling with balloons and poodles.
You rev the engine to your $150,000 sports car or our MSP's in this case, again smiling ear to ear. The light turns green and your off screaming threw the gears rushing to the top of your revs, becoming more and more frustrated as this little nerd mobile just keeps your pace. Your only hope is to run to the curves ahead and lose him in the twisties ahead. Again the car bites at your heals with the authority of a two foot tall rabid Doberman pincher.
Finally you give up hope, hang your head and turn the corner hoping nobody saw you that would tell the tale to your buddies.

Well this story came to mind as I read about the Tango 600 from commuter cars, Here read all about this 0-60 in 4 second, Porsche handling super car.

I actually saw a video of one of those autoxing. Kicked ass, too. The battery pack runs the length of the floorpan, and makes for a low center of gravity.

Electric motor = oodles of torque

Looks like fun:

Looks like is would tip over if you took a turn too fast...

If I were interested in an electric supercar, I'd look to Toyota:

Alessandro Volta

It uses a 3.3 liter V6, but only as a generator. It get's Jetta TDI like gas milage and puts out over 400hp to all 4 wheels... fun!

 

[Spooled]

Too bad you'd look like a character from Finding Nemo swimming down the street in this thing...

 

[daedalus]

imagine for a second if an SUV hit you... or a truck.... or even a GEO METRO! Insta-DEATH!

 

[II-Savy]

imagine for a second mods that didn't come on with wise ass comments.

Cool car though.

 

[jred321]

i dont see any mods

 

[peepsalot]

I am sorry, but that picture of it smoking it's wheels at the track is just hilarious looking to me. LOL, I think I'll set that as my new wallpaper.

 

[peepsalot]

oh, an that thing is practically a motorcycle. It should smoke most cars, just like many bikes can smoke most cars. Kinda hard to consider it in the same class as a regular car.

What mods?

[misbehave]

Imagine the driver of such stupid looking car driving that same ulgy car forever because he will be single for the rest of his life.

 

[Adam3482P]
