Key Takeaways
McMurtry Automotive is set to unveil the production version of its Spéirling electric car, a revolutionary EV that uses giant fans to create a low-pressure zone and increase traction, allowing for unparalleled acceleration and speed with 1,000hp and 2,000kg of downforce.
The production version, dubbed the Spéirling PURE, will feature 95% new components, seven colour options, and a hefty price tag of £1 million (approximately $1.32 million CAD), limited to only 100 units, making it a rare and exclusive electric performance vehicle.
Canadian pricing and availability for the Spéirling PURE have not been announced, but it's unlikely to be eligible for the iZEV incentive or provincial rebates due to its high price point, although it may still attract attention from Canadian electric vehicle enthusiasts and be seen at local tracks or events.
McMurtry Automotive Teases Production Version of Spéirling Electric Car
McMurtry Automotive, a British company, is set to unveil the production version of its Spéirling 'fan car' next week, a revolutionary electric vehicle that has been shattering track records with its unique design. The Spéirling features giant fans underneath the car, which create a low-pressure zone and increase traction without adding weight, allowing it to achieve unparalleled acceleration and speed. This technology, which dates back to the 1970s, has been banned in auto racing due to its significant advantage.
A Game-Changer in Electric Performance Vehicles
The Spéirling has been making waves in the electric vehicle community, with its prototype setting record-breaking times at various tracks and events, including the Goodwood Festival of Speed in 2022. With 1,000hp and 2,000kg of downforce at 0mph, this car is a force to be reckoned with. Although the production version will come with a hefty price tag of £1 million (approximately $1.32 million CAD), it will be limited to only 100 units, making it a rare and exclusive vehicle for those who can afford it. Unfortunately, Canadian pricing and availability have not been announced, but it's unlikely to be eligible for the iZEV incentive or provincial rebates due to its high price point.
Production Version: Spéirling PURE
The production version, dubbed the Spéirling PURE, will feature 95% new components compared to the prototype and will be available in seven decadent colour options. The car's design will remain largely similar to the prototype, with a small single-seater body and a large wing at the rear. While the Spéirling PURE is not intended for daily driving, it's an exciting development for Canadian electric vehicle enthusiasts who may have the opportunity to see it in action at local tracks or events. As the Canadian electric vehicle market continues to grow, with many provinces offering rebates and incentives for eco-friendly vehicles, the Spéirling PURE is a reminder of the innovative technology and design that is emerging in the industry.
