First ever electric touring car is quicker than most supercars
- 5 years ago
A team of bright sparks have created the world’s first electric racing touring car - and the eco-friendly machine is quicker than most supercars.
The Cupra e-Racer, which is built by the performance wing of Seat, will accelerate from 0-62mph in just 3.2 seconds.
It will do 0-124mph in 8.2 seconds and accelerate all the way to a top speed of 167mph - leaving many petrol-powered cars in its wake.
The staggering performance comes from an electric motor which develops the equivalent of around 670bhp.
