No need for the translation software, the photos tell it all .. and as much as I dislike electric cars,  if this will really work, it’s an ingenious idea .   :clap:  :clap:

Great that they chose to display in a 968. Does that front bumper exist? It's a subtle change but looks very natural.

Its heavier, slower, and 80 mile range


Not really viable is it

Roboman, what is different on the frontbumper besides the added LED lights?

True, that’s a pretty big drawback if you get it now, but I’d think in just a couple of years a new version will be much lighter, faster and with significantly greater range .. as is the case with just about all electric engines now  from one year to the next..    Still never a consideration for me even if it goes  0-60 in 2 sec, has a range of 1,000 mi on a charge, and it takes 5 minutes for a full charge .  There is no soul without petrol !

Hi J, I thought the bottom of the sides were flared slightly on the front cover photo. But looking at the later photos it's not so. Maybe just the lighting or a bit of artistic shading.

We all need to drive our vehicles before they are mandated to the trash heap.

I saw a recent video taken from the cockpit of a Porsche Taycan turning a very fast lap around the Nurbergring Nordschliefe. Did there lat in 7 minutes and change. No engine noise but you could hear the tires howl. Looks like the car handles very well despite the weight.

 

Electric cars will be the way of the future unless someone can figure out a way to make hydrogen as readily as gasoline is.

And the bootleg tyres in the background ... not exactly standard for 16" rims, but beggars can't be choosers Smile

Not sure how flammable or what the E 85 flash point is , but I’d be careful with that cigarette .  Or with the “ duck dynasty “ beard, that could also catch on fire.   But yes the Clint Eastwood squint is always a cool look !
