It would be interesting but hmm, the renders I've seen were pretty bad.

The UKs charging infrastructure needs to catch up. Electric seems to be winning out the next gen race, Hydrogen looks a bit Betamax?

Nooo, hydrogen fuel cells are the future, hybrids are the nearer future, full electric is just a small niche that will not become mainstream for many decades until solid state battery tech has been fully developed and evolved.

You mean the better system won't be adopted?

Regardless thank God Ferrari are still doing this: 770hp 520ft/lb of N/a goodness....that would be electrifying to drive (if you pardon the pun)
