Shelby Unveils World's Fastest Electric Car


The firm has released details of its Ultimate Aero EV which will reach an extraordinary 208mph.

The car, which is due to go on sale before the end of the year, will sprint to 60mph in just 2.5 seconds.

Shelby Supercars says the Ultimate Aero EV is powered by a ‘revolutionary All-Electric Scalable Powertrain’.

This twin motor system produces 1000 horse power and 800lb-ft of torque.

A Shelby Supercars spokesman said: “Being the world’s fastest production car we decided the Ultimate Aero to be the perfect high visibility outlet to demonstrate our new green powertrain.

“The Ultimate Aero EV will prove that electric-powered vehicles will not only match but also provide more overall performance than internal combustion cars.”
