It looks like a shrunken Batmobile and it gives us a tantalizing look at the future of sports cars.
Every year more and more interesting sporty EVs turn up to the Goodwood Festival of Speed, and this year’s McMurtry Spierling is among the coolest ever. It’s a small, single-seater electric track special that not only has a power to weight ratio of 1 hp/kg, but it also has massive fans in the rear that provide downforce.The mere notion that you can control the amount of downforce applied to the rear through a paddle on the steering yoke opens up a whole new world of possibilities for driving enthusiasts. Many keen drivers often say they prefer a sporty car with a manual gearbox because it is more engaging and there’s just more to do.
Actively controlling how much downforce is applied to certain parts of the car would certainly add something to the experience. It would bring back the engagement and add an entirely new dimension to quick driving - link
