⚡ Fast & furiously electric

BYD’s YangWang U9 Xtreme hit 308.33 mph, which makes it less of a car and more of a ground-based weather event. 

The electric hypercar made the run at Germany’s Papenburg test track, becoming the fastest production car on Earth. It runs on four motors, nearly 3,000 horsepower and the kind of engineering that makes a Bugatti quietly update its résumé. I’ve got a Porsche in the garage, and it just felt slow.

The regular U9 can even hop over potholes with its DiSus-X suspension, because driving around road damage is apparently for peasants.

Give it a gander here.
