Which is presumably why they've given it nearly 700hp! It will be quick in a straight line at least, how well it will brake and go round corners is anyone's guess. Plus, as already mentioned, that much extra weight is likely to make crashes bigger and more expensive.

I'm not convinced by this at the moment, but keeping an open mind...
Brakes will be fine - they will utilize a lot of regen from the motor


A lot of the questions being thrown up here are already covered by the Jag I-Pace Trophy,
