Masks are off
Former Tesla and Lucid employees have founded the Longbow electric supercar brand in the UK.
At the helm of the new company are Daniel Davey, who launched the Tesla Model 3 in Europe and became the first employee hired by Lucid outside the US, and Mark Tapscott, who had a hand in creating the Lotus Elise.
Longbow showed teasers of the Roadster and Speedster, two-seat rockets due to take off next year. Unusually light thanks to their aluminum architecture (995 and 895 kg, respectively), they promise a hurricane of emotions. What's under the bonnet is still a mystery, but there are rumors of acceleration to a hundred in 3.5-3.6 sec.
The team of engineers includes the cream of Lotus, Aston Martin, and Tesla. The Longbow will be assembled in the UK. The price on pre-order is from £65 thousand for the Roadster and from 85 for the Speedster. The volume of production will be only 150 copies of each model, so you should hurry up.
