I like it. Good that it beats a Tesla. 4.8 seconds 0-60 is pretty good.
The one thing that does make me wonder about the future for cars like this, is the fact that the batteries are built as part of the structure of the car, so what happens when they need replacing?

Why’s the door handles so low? And I hope they can get the ICTP infotainment system to work properly as it hasn’t worked correctly on any car it’s been fitted to as of yet.
Looks fab but JLR and electrics don’t fill me with confidence.23.5MY Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE D250 MHEV Pangea Green
