Tech Specs

The Speirling has a very powerful 1,000 hp powertrain. along with two big technological differentiators.  There are two turbines behind the cockpit that suck in air from under the car and shoot it out the rear.  These 2 turbine fans, with their unique Downforce on Demand systems, produce more than 4,000 pounds of downforce which essentially holds the car to the tarmac as its rockets down the track and keeps it steady as it turns corners.  The car is small, lightweight, aerodynamically designed and weighs only 2,205 pounds.  It is 10.5 feet long. It's a rear-wheel drive vehicle.  It has a 300 mile plus range on its 60-kwh battery.  Speirling can reach speeds over 200 mph.  Incredibly, it accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 1.4 seconds and can cover a quarter of a mile in 7.97 seconds, which are new acceleration records.  This new vehicle is yours for $1.22 million.  For more news stories like this, Flight Path to the Future
