A prototype electric supercar has just accelerated from 0-60mph in 1.92s. Yes folks, Japanese supercar-maker Aspark has tested its Owl EV, and it has delivered. Delivered on a promise Aspark made last year, confidently predicting its two-seat, butterfly-doored exotic could run the benchmark 0-62mph sprint in less than two. How? Hoosier racing tyres, to start with. According to information we learned at Frankfurt last year, the Owl runs a pair of 40kW motors, offering up 429bhp and 563lb ft of torque. There"s a battery and supercapacitor setup (the latter recovering energy from braking), for instant juice.
