Phenomenal technology. But it ain't pretty.

Very pleased to read that the little engine isn't a re-purposed in-line 4.

So electric turbos aren't too far away then.

 

But....I'd still rather have an Aston Martin Vulcan with a 7l V12

the interior picture on that article:

 

looks a lot more "normal" than the one tweeted by Auto Express yesterday - it looked like the occupants would be lying on a moulded  floor, rather than sitting in seats

Looks like a bit of perspective fail with the ol' photoshop.

Did they forget to employ a stylist?

 

It looks like a cheapo hot-rod Saleen S7R with some silver paint and a squashed McLaren front end (#Rowan Atkinson) grafted on.

 

It wouldn't have got on to the Grand Tour episode 1 car-porn shoot out cos its fuggly!

 

The newest Saleen version has 1000bhp as well and only costs $1 million dollars. muahahahaha #DoctorEvil

Just another pointless collectors item to me.
