Ferrari Has an Electric Supercar Patent That Stacks Batteries in a Mid-Engine Setup

Jaguar Developing Its Own EV Platform as Brand Goes Fully Electric in 2025

The Audi R8 Supercar’s Successor Will Be Electric
At this point, it’s unsurprising to hear that some of our favorite cars—with some of our favorite engines—are being replaced by near-silent electric vehicles. Given the sheer speed and acceleration that batteries and electric motors can provide, that’s not even a bad thing for performance, but it’s easy to get […]
The Electric Nissan Ariya SUV Is Cooler as an Open-Wheel Race Car
The Nissan Ariya is, with the best will in the world, not any kind of race car. Its base model is more than 100 horsepower short of a Formula E Gen2 car and y’know, it’s a crossover. Only Jaguar was insane enough to race those on tight street circuits. Nevertheless, […]
