I like the sound of this sports car!, You could do 200 KPH down the nighborhood and no one would hear.

the high pitch sound could result in serious problems if electric cars are mass-produced.

@Oldbmwr100rs there are already batteries with 5 times higher volumic energy than lithium-batteries. with these batteries you could make a tesla roadster with the same range as the original but 5 times less battery weight, or the same battery weight but 5 times more range - at a much lower price than lithium too!

google for "aerogel battery" or something like that ;)

@purpleGoAhead The motor is not the problem, there's incredibly good motors out there,and due to demand for more energy efficiency, better ones being developed all the time. No, the problem with electric cars is battery weight,capacity and range. It doesn't matter how good the battery packs are,either, the weight and limited range will always be the downfall of electric cars. The general public will never accept the limitations.

The fastest Caterham R500 can start from 0 to100 km/h in 2.9. So this electrical car is slower, and where is this beautiful sound of petrol (diesel) engine? What is the max range of this? 100km? 200? Try to take corners in this as fast as you can do in normal cars. And don't tall me that is the future because it's not. Petrol or Oil you can get from everything like carbon or algae...

@Tamashaly what are you talking about? it's much easier to get high power from an electric motor than from a combustion-engine... you could have a 500hp electric motor with 1500Nm of torque, available from 1rpm and it would not be half as big and nowhere near as heavy as a 1.6l 4banger for example...

looks like a caterham O_O!

@Dimitri0809

yeah, because that's a good thing isn't it?

quiet isn't a good thing. neither is obnoxiously loud, but you want to be heard because it gives you road presence.
