Electric car

The article is about an electric car that meets expectations of sports car. With 1018 horsepower and the ability to go 0 to 62 mph in just 2.8 seconds this car is the new thing in the market, the car can travel 372 miles before recharging. The car was built in a garage by a twenty-five year old, named Mate Rimac.

I like this article because it’s the future of cars, with petroleum at its highest prices it is time to look for a new alternative. Electric cars are the alternative but nobody wants a little smart car that tops at 60 mpg. With a car that fits the qualification of Bugatti, who would not want this car! By making cars like this we are saving the environment, which is what we need since global warming is at its peak. I hope they start producing these cars as it can be the change that the world needs.

The author supports his claim when he stated the capabilities and of the car why he did such as “the car produces 1018 horsepower, can accelerate from 0 to 100 kph (62 mph) in just 2.8 seconds, has a top speed of 305 kph (190 mph), and can travel 600 kilometers (372 miles) on a single charge.” This proves that this car is out of this world, no other electric car has ever met those expectations. According to the article “ "I decided to combine my two passions, technology and cars and make an electric car that can prove the electric motor is much better even on the racetrack...”
