Yesterday, Gordon Murray Design has officially unveiled their latest ultra compact city vehicle - the T.27 EV.

Dubbed the "world's most efficient electric car," the T.27 is the result of the iStream production process, aiming at reducing lifecycle impacts and enable low cost, efficient manufacture within the UK. The car is 25 kW electric motor that enables it to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than 15 seconds and reached a top speed of 105 km/h . While it's not fast, driving range is estimated at 161 km in the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC).


According to Professor Gordon Murray, CEO of Gordon Murray Design "Lightweight is the most powerful tool we have in our armory in the fight against emissions and fuel consumption. This is true of all cars and especially so with electric vehicles! A lightweight car means a lightweight battery increasing the levels of safety and reducing the retail price dramatically."

A launch date hasn't been set, but GMD is talking with 3 manufacturers about T.27 production.
