Quite like that. 20 years time people will have trouble finding petrol stations.

Quite handy it acting as UPS ! That would be handy in Spain.

Hmm. interesting.

Sensible size (because I'll always have to keep a large petrol car, so an electric car would be small and fun)
Sensible performance
Sensible range
Sensible price? ::)

"Total range for the roadster is 179 miles under normal driving conditions."

So, about 50 odd miles, then?  :-\  ::)

They state carbon fibre chassis.... but unless I'm well out of tune, I thought the Elise (which this is) had a bonded aluminium extruded chassis?

So a British-built electric car from a small manufacturer.
