Hmmmm. not sure about the lecky power, but the Batmobile stylee smoked bubble screens looked quite good

Ah you noticed those screens as well. I love them, Just wish they were available in laminated safety glass.- Which is what I have to use in Canada.

I think arial should have a go at building electric Atoms. Mind you, the Atom 300 is suposed to be 1 tenth of a second faster to 60 and thats got a supercharged honda engine.

I don't know, electric motors make all their torque starting off then taper right off. And all the weight of those batteries hanging out the back can't be helping.

And how do you charge the batteries?
From mains electricity, which is generated by burning lots and lots of coal and Gas

So what is more efficient, burning fuel to turn an engine to move a car, or burning fuel to make electricity to charge heavy batteries to move a car?

This always really puzzles me, I know during the night etc excess electricity is produced but I didn't think the process of generating it was that efficient?

(and isn't 1 of the tinyiest higest output batteries some kind of engine powered by lighter fuel, am sure I saw that somewhere)

The future is hydrogen fuel cells imho.
