It is brushless. I haven't seen it. But that is the sweetest thing I've seen in a looong time!

Is it really brushless? The vast majority of electric cars run a brushed setup or an AC induction motor.

"Nothing is as powerful as an idea whose time has come."

that car is incredible and i believe is the dawn of powerful electric sports cars for mass production. it will only keep growing. just like brushless RC has continued to amass attention and acceptance so will the real thing. cant wait to see what the future holds.
