I like the lines of this, if not the grill.

Jaguar's Jet-Powered Supercar Wows Paris

http://fp.images.autos.msn.com/Media/580x348/dd/ddd1b54432344bd9b7eb8b1a52d30e26.jpg



780 horsepower A staggering 1,180 lb-ft of instantaneous, electrically generated torque

Inspired by racing Jags like the one-of-a-kind XJ13, the C-X75 will sprint from zero to 62 mph in just 3.4 seconds. It can also travel 68 miles on pure electric power or 560 miles with the assistance of its two turbine engines.

What the hell do you use for tires on that thing, it would just shred normal tires.

Yeah, they weigh around 2kg and two of them would fit on your lap. The generator sets they power weigh around 20kg. They will run on anything from kerosene to diesel to french fry drain. :cool:

Compared to a piston engine generating the same amount of electricity they are 20% of the weight, flexible about what they drink and have 3 times the service life.
