U.G.L.Y, but looks kind of cool at the same time. Very Mini-Moke.

"£9m of investment" for something that looks like that? I could probably make something much better looking for 500,000 pounds.

Looks like a shit go-kart..

Shit-kart!

60mph, recharge after 100 miles - what's the f-ing point?! So you can drive for an hour and a half and be out of power? What i'd like to know is why no one has thought about strapping solar panels to these monstrosities to harvest a little more juice, not to mention other ways to squeeze out just a little more, like Heat to elecricity solutions

The probably will in time to come, things such as thermopile technology and infrared-scavenging panels (just like solar power, but with the heat end of the light spectrum).

That's if we don't all get blown from here to Kingdom-Come first, when they fire the Large Hadron Collider at full power.

Actually, the LHC may be more likely to suck us all inside-out, but outway or inway, the outcome would still suck !
