Interesting. That’s getting pretty close to a pure sports car. I wonder how it handles? If it handles well, it must be due to either A) some kind of expensive battery technology to keep the weight down, or B) expensive technology in other places—like lots of carbon fiber in the chassis—to offset the weight of the battery. It would nice if it were the former, since that would mean lighter weight batteries are a possibility but just not yet economical.
