At 1.7 million for the car, the cost per mile can't be reasonable. Probably due to the high cost of Unobtanium Snake Oil that powers it.

 

Now a ZO 4 cylinder 350 HP marine engine is quite reasonable (?). This technology, I don't quite get. And I'm nowhere near replacing my Cessna engine with one either.

 

Still, the research and dreaming that drives it can lead to great things. It's wrong for me to dis this project based on one article. I'll try to keep an open mind.
