Remember the Aspark Owl? Of course you remember the Aspark Owl. How could you forget the Aspark Owl. It"s an all-electric supercar from Japan called OWL that"s shaped like a semi-sentient alien. At the Paris Motor Show last year, we learned the specs of the OWL had changed: more of everything. Power from the four electric motors now totals some 1,150bhp (more than double what was originally planned), along with a combined motor torque of 652lb ft. We now learn that the company is considering doing a run at That Racetrack In Germany (N rburgring? We want to say N rburgring). "[The] Aspark Owl performances are allowing us to aim [for] the N rburgring record," explains an Aspark spokesperson. Currently the NIO EP9 holds the EV record, but as Aspark points out that"s a track special. The OWL is a road-legal hypercar.
