    Default 780hp Electric car... Jaguar C-X75

    Jaguar C-X75
    Zero to sixty-two in 3.4 seconds? Check. 780 horsepower? Check. Zero Emissions? Check. The Jaguar C-X75 ($TBA) is a new concept vehicle designed to celebrate the British car maker's 75th anniversary, and as such is packed with high-end gear like two 96-horsepower micro gas turbines that help recharge a plug-in lithium-ion battery, which in turns powers four 195-horsepower electric motors, one for each wheel. Other highlights include three high-res screens for driver information, an aluminum body with swan doors, and a futuristic design that screams "I will never see a commercial release."

    Looks gross, but pretty cool mechanically I would assume. The little blurb with the photo you posted does not tell much about the car.

    That must be pretty heavy if it takes 3.4 seconds to reach 60MPH with almost 800HP AWD and the instant torque of EVs. Still pretty cool, though I agree it lacks in the looks department.
