Default Alcraft GT: British-developed electric shooting brake revealed

Quote:
The GT is a two-door shooting brake with lightweight, carbonfibre construction, a four-seat layout and 500 litres of boot space.

Alcraft quotes 600bhp and 840lb ft for the GT. This closely matches the Tesla Model S P100D’s 603bhp, but eclipses its 713lb ft of torque. Alcraft is keen to remain battery only rather than fit a range extender, given the benefits in performance and driving experience. A range of 300 miles is also quoted, although this could grow with the addition of a range extender engine, which the company is considering.

Three-motor four-wheel drive is planned, which Alcraft says provides a 0-62mph time of around 3.5sec.
