We"ve just a couple of months to wait before the first race of Formula E"s fifth season. And we"re quite excited, chiefly because of the new, more powerful, better-looking Gen2" cars you can read about right here. Testing in Spain, ahead of December"s season-opener in Saudi Arabia, has given us our first chance to see and hear them in action. The results aremixed. On the one hand, they look just as tremendous on the move as we hoped they might. All futuristic and Batmobile-y. But on the other, they still sound like a vacuum cleaner that"s struggling with an especially tricky patch of flotsam. Or a dog trying to operate a dentist"s drill. 22 of them all circulating at once, their high-pitched whines reverberating off buildings and barriers, might need to come with some kind or warning.
