The vehicle’s top speed is limited to 412kmph and does a 0-100kmph in just 1.97 seconds! The oil cooled motors can cover a distance of 650kms on a full charge.

The vehicle gets an active rear wing which manages handling and functions as an air brake with just a touch of a button. The underbody gets a magnitude of flaps for that additional bit of downforce. The wheels are also aerodynamically designed to reduce drag and downforce along with faster cooling brakes.
