Re: 8.5kW and 0-60 in 10 seconds?

"the engineering prototype weighs 580 kg"

to put it into context, thats about the same as an original 1958/9 Mini Minor (~12 cwt) - with slide windows, minimal padding on the seats and none of the later safety features added - which pushed the weight up. 850cc engine producing 34 bhp (~25kW) and around 75mph top speed (downhill,,,,,,,with a following wind)

This thing is going to be seriously underpowered.
