Gordon Murray moved in to the PROMISED LAND! Full ELECTRIC SUV'S?🧐
Quote>"In announcing the separate design and engineering consultancy company Gordon Murray Technology on Thursday, Gordon Murray said he has two electric SUVs in the works, one for Gordon Murray Automotive and the other for a major car company.
One SUV will feature four seats and front-wheel drive and the other five seats and four-wheel drive. The SUV for Gordon Murray Automotive will feature more accessible pricing than the seven-figure price tags of the company's supercars, and will make people “reconsider what electric vehicles are capable of,” Murray said."
There's been MANAGEMENT and COMPANY and CORPORATE changes to the organisation. But THIS has completely shocked me!

I love to be the one with an unpopular opinion, but I hate to break this to you all: the GMA T.50 is NOT the modern McLaren F1. It's the 21st-century equivalent to something even crazier, the 1969-70ish M12 GT.
The T.50 and the F1 share plenty in common, such as a mid-engine layout, a V12 engine, a stick-shift, rear-wheel drive, and a middle steering wheel. But the F1's engine and ride quality were not as race-grade as the M12 GT; and the latter is what the T.50 is actually aiming for.
Besides, the T.50 is way too light, even by 20th-century standards, to be even considered a proper supercar. It's an actual race car for the street, like the M12 GT.
Never in a million years will there EVER be a successor to the F1. The Speedtail is just that one classy daughter of the 720S (being the dad) and P1 (being the mom) with some weird-looking fenders.

The Czech Republic Will Fight The EU's Combustion Engine Ban
A battle against "green fanatics."
The European Union has been at the forefront of pushing for a combustion-engined vehicle sales ban in the not-so-distant future. Countries like Germany and France are open to the idea while Norway has already embraced all-electric vehicles. The Nissan Leaf has been a best-seller there for years. As many industry analysts predict Europe will push forward with its EV agenda at a faster pace than the United States, they should take note that not all EU member nations are in favor of the plan. The Czech Republic is perhaps the best example.
Bloomberg reports that Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis has no intention of abandoning gasoline and diesel-powered vehicles by 2025, a goal stated in a recent EU proposal.
"We will not agree with the ban on selling fossil-fuel-powered cars," he said. "It's not possible. We can't dictate here what green fanatics devised in the European Parliament."
Unlike other smaller EU member states, the Czech Republic carries some serious weight. It's one of the world's biggest vehicle builders on a per-capita basis. It's also assuming the EU rotating presidency in the second half of next year. The country that borders Germany's east side is not afraid of using its economic and political clout. However, the country is not completely against EVs. It is in favor of a charging infrastructure but refuses to subsidize the production.
The Czechs have a long history of cars dating back over a century. In fact, nearly a third of the country's economy comes from the auto industry. The Volkswagen Group's Skoda brand is Czech-founded and today has two factories in the country. Hyundai and Toyota also have factories there. Of course, a different Czech government could get voted into office and reverse the current one's policies.
That may not have a chance to happen because the VW Group, Hyundai, and Toyota are all pressing ahead with electric vehicles. If the Czech Republic wants to retain their business, the country's politicians may have no choice but to change their position.

Quote>"It is set to beat its predecessor on mass, weighing a claimed (and impossible-sounding) 2174 pounds. If that holds true, the T.50 would have a power-to-weight ratio of 3.3 pounds per horsepower, some 13 percent better than a McLaren Senna."
Jesus Christ! If you talk to me in my language (Haha!) it makes all the difference. The T50 from an engineering viewpoint was always impeccably very impressive. The asethetics for me individually were a slight letdown, but that situation is improving rapidly. I want to see a metallic deep red or purple one!
