I'm with you. I was just commenting on its unusual proportions.

but!! to further illustrate my point... the no-trans-vectrix has a very limited top speed and less-than-petrol acceleration. It seems without a trans you have to accept certain compromises that you wouldn't otherwise.

Now I'm very intrigued with the idea of running 2 motors in seriel. Can someone help shed some light on that for me? What is involved and how does this process work?
