Electric car with 1,350Nm of torque on sale now

This may look like a golf buggy posing as an electric car but this is one of the most powerful electric vehicles we’ve come across yet. With a price tag of $108,000, the ‘120-M.P.H. Electric Car’ will accelerate from 0-60mph in four seconds flat and reach a top speed of 120mph with just one gear. It features two electric motors - smaller versions of the same kind found in diesel-electric locomotives - that combine to produce over 1,354Nm (1,000lb-ft) of torque.

The vehicle’s chassis is made of stainless steel and features an integrated roll-cage for added safety. The body panels are made of carbon fiber, Kevlar, and fiberglass, and its side impact bars are claimed to offer four times the protection found in typical SUVs. The car generates no emissions and operates from a set of lead-acid batteries that can recharge using any power outlet up to 50 amps, providing enough power for a range of 40-80 miles.

If you can wait for the Tesla Roadster to ever be completed then head over to - ONLY REGISTERED AND ACTIVATED USERS CAN SEE ALL LINKS - CLICK HERE TO REGISTER and order your 120-M.P.H. Electric Car today, and yes we’re just as shocked as you at hearing about this car.

Not to be suspicious or anything but if you head-crashed that car into, let's say Tahoe, I think they would have to scrape you off its grille. Or if you got lucky, try to look for your car inside Tahoe's engine bay.

Re: Electric car with 1,350Nm of torque on sale now

It may be tough in side-crash...
But if a Tahoe crashes against that thing, it will throw it at the other end of the galaxy...

I don't want to take a corner @ 120m/h with that thing, either, it should have wheels on the roof, just in case...

Re: Electric car with 1,350Nm of torque on sale now

The only thing I am interested is the size of the electric motor in this thing for research. The common size for electric motor that produce around 600 Nm of torque is around 700mm in length and 500mm in diameter, and they are very large and heavy things to fit inside such a tiny box.

A typical SUV isn't that safe anyway, and this little box on wheels are probably 4 times as likely to roll over than a typical SUV.

Re: Electric car with 1,350Nm of torque on sale now

It's about as wide as my 17 inch laptop. Driven hard and perhaps leaving ground it will tip over like a DVD case. Heck a small gang of 8 years old punks can tip it over with their bare hands.

So in another words, this is one quick accelerating mobile death trap.

Re: Electric car with 1,350Nm of torque on sale now

Is this POS even road legal?

I really can't imagine anyone wanting to drive this in 120MPH. It's dead fast though, quicker than the GT3 in a straight line.
