Electric Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Sportscar

looks promising.

They can reduce hp (around 400) to make affordable luxury EV like Tesla.

This car was shown on Top Gear tonight. They did a drag race with the Black SLS and, of course, the electric won. The Stig, running both cars around the track, the Black version was 2 seconds faster than the electric version.

Top Gear still doesn't like electrics. No surprise there.

I don't think that Jeremy was that negative about it.

He however said that going from London to Manchester which is 200 miles would take 20 hours. That is ofcourse not true, since it can charge a lot faster on 3-phase 22kW.

What I did notice is that when they were summing up electric cars they left out Tesla.
