Renovo Coupe: America's First Electric Supercar

Post by Duke »

How friggin cool is this, I love how they have made the electrics look like a V8 motor.
What looks like a Shelby Daytona Coupé, goes like a 911 Turbo S and uses no fuel? The Renovo Coupe.
It's a car bred in Silicon Valley and it's the first all-electric supercar from the US.
We caught up with its creators at Pebble Beach 2014 for a chat about the most exciting new EV on the block.

Looks good yes but is insanely expensive for a tiny range. Merc SLS would be a far better bet for a performance electric car.

Mmm.. Nice comb-over, just keep looking at it more then the car...

Range is 100miles, no info on just cruising or doing supercar stuff.
Some play it safe on the merry-go-round, others go for the thrills of the roller-coaster.
