Ariel has a new 1160-hp EV sports car with a turbine range extender.
Hipercar isn't just a clever name. It stands for High Performance Carbon Reduction. The chassis and subframes are aluminum, while the frankly ridiculous body structure—which is expected to go into production unchanged—is made from carbon fiber.
Power comes from a Cosworth-supplied 62-kWh battery pack that runs on an 800-volt architecture. Buyers can opt for rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, with a 290-hp Equipmake APM electric motor at each wheel. Total output for the all-wheel-drive variant is 1163 hp and 1327 lb-ft of torque, while the rear-drive version gets 581 hp and 664 lb-ft.The most fascinating part of the Hipercar isn't its weird body, it's the optional range extender.
The Hipercar you see here is Ariel's first production-intent prototype. The company hasn't said how much the car will cost or when deliveries will begin, though we're expecting to learn more later in the year.
