The Electric Ferrari created by Eric Hutchison is 10 seconds faster than the original gas version. “I really was dying to know how this 308 compared to a stock 308,” says conversion specialist Hutchison of Electric GT. Italian GP: Hamilton delights in spoiling Ferrari party “We had a professional driver drive both cars in a timed environment on the same track — about a mile and a half — and the professional driver did that lap in 1:26 with a gas Ferrari.” “The electric car absolutely decimated the gas car,” he said. “Watching the professional driver off the line, the electric car left like a 25-foot burn out as he was just gripping for traction.” The electric Ferrari is 10 seconds faster than the original gas version It cost him $10,000 to buy from a junkyard after being destroyed in an engine fire. Hamilton races to top past Ferrari According to Hutchison the opportunity for speed was what made the car a perfect vehicle to transform. “The Ferrari makes a great candidate for conversion because when you’re converting the car to electric you’re adding power, you’re doubling the power, you’re doubling the torque,” he said. “This car was meant for speed. It might not have been engineered for this much speed, but it handles it really well. This car actually goes so much better and it feels natural with this amount of power in it.” [© tribune.com.pk] https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1116415_dont-expect-an-electric-ferrari-before-2023 Don't expect an electric Ferrari before 2023 Apr 25, 2018 - Despite Sergio Marchionne's claim in January that Ferrari will be the first on the market with an electric supercar, don't expect to see such a model from the Prancing Horse before 2023.
