Yes, 100% sure of it. If they can steal $millions from institutions, they can hack and steal electric cars too.My comment was rhetorical.
However, all kinds of cars get stolen. So someone, somewhere, must know how to "beat the systems"?

So, do you know much about Electric Vehicles?

Ya, is it Kia that can give a friend an electronic key to start the car? That sounds like trouble waiting to happen!Sure if you know the access code to start the car and we all have the exact location of the vehicle 24/7 on our cells.
As of 2021 81% of Canadians live in "cities" which makes it frustrating for the rest of us that do not and would not be able to rely on an electric vehicle in all seasons for all of our needs. This will drive the political agenda going forward. I will be fine settling for an electric toy one day such as a Miata or Boxter.
McMurtry Spéirling review: driving the fastest accelerating car in the world
Mat Watson gets in the cockpit of what is now the fastest car he’s ever driven, and the fastest accelerating road car in the world.
Impressive performance and concept. Wow. Sounds good too like a mini fighter jet.

Interesting that you can only do one track lap, at "full power"...and when dialed down to behave like a Porsche GT3, you get 20 track minutes. Not a practical vehicle, even for track use.
Agreed. Technology is not there yet but 5 - 10 years? If this proof to work, every one will adopt this concept with fans act as down force for sport ev. Most of everything on the C8 except Mag shocks was use previously by some one else?
At a premium price of £2M (C$3.38M) to do 0-60mph in 1.4sec, I think I'll stick with the C8 HTC Z51 at a paltry C$130K, which is 1/26th the price of the Spéirling, and learn to live with 0-60 in 2.9sec. It's the price I'll pay for being frugal.
It is not about the present McMurtry, its price, how impractical and untractive design but rather the concept.
Who would have though the carbon ceramic brakes and carbon fiber panels would be on the some mid end sport cars 20 years later?
What concept? Sorry, I'm missing your point.View attachment 110320

Fans for downforce along with battery power.
Bought a Tesla model S for my supermodel wife’s birthday, 5 years ago . Great car .
We have had no issues, just had to replace the brakes .
That's reassuring.
I really enjoy driving my borrowed M3 Performance. Will do some suspension and cosmetics mods in the near future months.
I currently service 4 pretty fast and nice gas powered vehicles... but, as much as I am a petrol head, I do know that the day will come when I too shall purchase an electric car. In the near future, the batteries and the range will undoubtedly improve. (I would like to have at a minimum a 250kms range) For now, I am keeping an eye on the Karma Revero...... while still enjoying and not giving up the sounds of a V8...... time will tell...And yes, Ill hang on to a couple of nice V8s

Never. I'll move to Mexico, where the roads are bad, the real estate is cheap, gas is plentiful, and so is the tequila. Hola, mi amigos!!!
For a large sedan it also handles very well. Had trouble getting up my driveway in winter with my C43 Mercedes , kept sliding back down the driveway , hit the bins at the bottom of the driveway. Finally made it up . Took the Tesla next , it flew up the driveway without an issue .
