    That's way overpriced. You can get a fully specced Tesla Model S P85D for less.

    It's a limited production model but yea Tesla would be a more sensible choice

    Yes they're going to make 150 of them but it's hardly a "production " car, more of a proving the concept car...

    If they can manage half of what they claim in a golf or passat style car in 4 or 5 years time they'll be doing well ..

    Wow would love to see it in the metal but think it will be a very brave person indeed to take it for a test drive especially if it costs that much. No doubt there will be a Q off people wanting to do.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.
