- Electric hypercar with fan demonstrates that he is the king of aerodynamic load
- EV record record eats f1 cars for breakfast
- It costs $ 1 million if you feel like running once
The McMurtry Spéirling might not be on its automotive radar, and that is perfectly well. It is a very strange name for an electric hypercar, to begin with, and it also costs around / $ 1 million / £ 1 million if you want to have one private.
But it is worth remembering the name, because the McMurtry Spéirling Pure has become the first vehicle to demonstrate that it can drive backwards. That is thanks to its fans technology that challenges gravity, which creates enough aerodynamic load not only to erase several racing circuit records, but also dance on the ceiling … well, drive on the roof.
In a video posted by the company, the Badss co -founder and managing director of McMurtry Automotive, Thomas Yates, left behind a spéirling Pure, led him casually to a specially designed platform and then established the ‘aerodynamic force system ”to his most fierce environment.
In this way, the numerous fans mounted under the tiny Batmobile-A turn at 23,000 rpm, creating a vacuum and the equivalent of 2,000 kg of aerodynamic load, effectively sticking the vehicle to any surface on which it is standing.
Attend
The smart platform then turns slowly 180 degrees so that the pen weight vehicle strains effortlessly, before Yates, clearly shows a little, drives forward a couple of feet at a slow speed.
Although it is an intelligent party trick to spread the name of Spéirling virally worldwide, this powerful fans technology has real world benefits in the creation of ridiculous amounts of Aurdo that maintain the vehicle positively stuck to any circuit brave enough to accommodate it.
Until now, the 1.2 tons of 1,000HP has broken the history of closed wheels in the Hockenheim circuit in Germany, an amazing amount of 14.1 seconds faster than the Mercedes-AMG, despite running with 75% power and 75% boom.
He also established record time in the famous Colina in Goodwood in 2022, in addition to exceeding the record established by the Renault F1 2004 car of Fernando Alonso around the Top Gear test circuit, a record that remained for 21 years.
An impressive toy or a serious science lesson?
As it has probably guessed, the McMurtry Spéirling is not currently legal on the road and most of the officially sanctioned racing bodies will not allow it to compete, since it is more fighting to reaction at the ground level than a racing car.
However, progress is about reaching problems from a different angle, and this road rocket based on fans does exactly that, embarrasing all modern supercar with their aerdo disconcerting and even challenging the F1 technology that we consider to be the absolute edge in terms of performance.
But perhaps the most important thing is the best halo vehicle for electric propulsion, which makes a gasoline engine that is spilled on the fire of the old school looks decidedly compared.
Innovative cars like this, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N, which exhibited synthesized emotions of synthesized hatch, as well as vehicles such as the next Renault 5 Turbo 3E 3E, are important for a collective wiring of our brains and push the notion that EVs do not have to be bored at even higher levels.
