hey i have seen you do many feature's on motorsport but i have never seen one done on Autograss! Autograss is a oval dirt track form of racing consisting of 10 classes, the highest of the classes 7, 8, 9 and 10 are some of the most amazing machines in the world with some of them hitting around 300bhp in a car the weighs only 400kg ish this leads to them doing 0-60 in well under 3seconds on dirt. i and many others would love to see you do a feature on autograss Ps. its 5 pounds to enter a race

Wow. Sounds fast to 50mph. Probably fast up the hill too. What happens once the charge runs out though? Same as every other electric. Wait hours for it to come back. Not knocking this or anything but getting more power from the motors is pointless. There's plenty of room for a bigger motor and we can have all the power we like. What we need is fast charging or a realistic way of getting more juice on board quickly. Until then the electric car is only useful for a small part of society.

It has a 32KWH pack and recharges using a single Chademo charger (50KW)
So, if you hit your theoretical empty (race cars do not because consumption is a known factor, in all races, any fuel, the wait between races gives you plenty of time.
More than that, if they need to recharge very fast then the packs will be fast swappable which beats standard refuelled cars to a pulp.
Personally, I go home, connect the car and go in the house. Wake up next day. What's the problem?

Lots of automakers love to build electric race cars but it never translates into fun street cars. Nissan, Renault, Volkswagen and probably some other big names have built electric race cars but their consumer electric cars don't any race heritage

electric motors lose the torque quickly with raising rpm. IIRC he mentioned that you get 450 lbs from 0 - 4500 rpm, if it would keep up to 11000 rpm, the car would have over 900 hp.

Bbbborring. I wish this bloody presenter would bugger off, he is so so dull it's not funny. I actually watch less Autocar videos as a consequence of the dull presenters,

Spend years honing the motors and power delivery to get the fastest car possible, but then don't put it on slicks? I'm obviously missing something.

can't you guys learn anything from Motortrend and Drive, and even C&D! This kind of review was okay 3 years ago but now it's just terrible!

not a fan. this thing is a million miles away from being a production vehicle and looks atrocious sounds like a normal evo though.
