New Eco-friendly Sports Car: Sunbeam Tiger Concept

Eco-friendly car is the need of the day and eco-friendly sports car is the latest happening thing. This one is the Sunbeam Tiger Concept which is a 2 seater sports car,designed by Coventry final year student Ryan Skelley.

The car is inspired by the 1920s Sunbeam Tiger speed record car. In September 1925 the V12 powered Sunbeam Tiger driven by Henry Segrave reached a half-mile record speed of 145 mph (233 km/h).

Features :

• Powered by an electric powertrain with a lithium-titanate battery pack which can be fully charged in 4 hours from a standard UK power socket.
• 0-60 mph in 2.3 seconds.
• An electronically limited top speed of 160mph and a driving range of about 800 miles between charges.
• Made from eco-friendly materials.

Designer comments,

I wanted to create a British roadster that would be the first of its kind in terms of its drivetrain and use of materials.
