Electric cars are boring. Electric cars are for lentil munchers and hair-shirt wearers. Hmmm... Maybe not. Jaguar are celebrating 75 years in the automobile game (although William Lyons was making cars before then, but lets not be too picky) with this rather impressive C-X75 supercar.
Don't get too excited just yet as its only a concept, and likely to stay that way due to obvious engineering issues around the jet engine at the heart of it (yes, JET engine) but the productionisable (yes, that it a real word) part of the car is its electric motors. Its these which give it the 205 MPH top speed and 0-60 in 3.2 seconds and 600 mile range on one tank of fuel. Replace the attention-grabbing jet with a petrol or diesel motor and you have what is essentially a hybrid...
Who thought they'd be fun?
