Oh, heck! This is even more way off what a Ferrari should be than that Ford Capri that debuted last week. I don’t think it will down well with the purists.
Ha ha someone on another forum countered the EV enthusiasts with a short video of a Lotus doing an extreme acceleration from a standing start. Apparently it had an electric motor for each of the 4 wheels which obviously did not agree with each other because it immediately destroyed itself violently hitting both front and back into some straw bales.
I watched that, A 2000hp Lotus at Goodwood. What’s the point of all that power if the software cant cope with it or the traction control was turned off .
Who cares in a strict speed regime in which even the German autobahns are no longer an unlimited default limit.Only short sections now.
RWD 400 hp max and a manual transmission option would be far more useful and fun and just maybe more attractive than ICE and auto to many.
Hmn, I wonder, could you get 3rd party only insurance for the Lotus because fully comp. would be a tad too expensive for a poor (very) OAP.
No need to worry about that because I reckon you and I might find it impossible to get inside the bloody thing.
I’ve never liked the sitting on the floor driving position of such cars at any age moreso now.
I’d prefer a V8 SVR LR Defender but that would cost even more to insure.
The nearest thing to sitting on the floor for me was a Thames Trader.
Something like an F type etc takes sitting on the floor to a whole new low level.
