Hold tight. This could get complicated. At the 2019 Geneva Motor Show, a company called Hispano Suiza will reveal 2019"s must-have: an electric sports car. It"s made of carbon fibre, and will be engineered by QEV Technologies, the team behind Mahindra"s Formula E racer. See the latter two pictures above - those shadowy teasers - for, erm, no details whatsoever. Meanwhile, elsewhere under the Geneva show lights, a company called Hispanio Suiza will be unveiling an anachronistic 2019 guilty pleasure: a 1,085bhp twin-turbo V10-powered old-school supercar. It"s based on a car first shown way back at the show in 2009, albeit with 750bhp back then. We were told it"d go sale in 2011 for 700k, and once 25 units were built, there"d also be a spider version. Both were to be based on the last-gen Audi R8 V10. See the renders above for te details. The many, many edgy details.
