    All that busyness actually serves a purpose.

    The range is 150 miles, assuming WLTP, plus an optional micro-turbine range extender using catalytic combustion. The battery is also good for 20 minutes of track running. A motor at each wheel rated at 295bhp each.

    The article also talks a bit about the UK programs that help fund these programs.
