World's fastest electric car

The world's fastest electric car that can reach speeds of 208mph has been unveiled.
The eco-vehicle created by Shelby Supercars can accelerate to 60mph in just 2.5 seconds.
It is powered by a twin motor system, which produces a staggering 1,000 horse power and 800lb-ft of torque.
In contrast the current electric sports car flagbearer, the Tesla Roadster which was recently tested by Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear, produces 250 horse power.
Makers Shelby Supercars, who also manufacture the world's fastest production car, say the Ultimate Aero EV is powered by a 'revolutionary All-Electric ScalableB Powertrain'.
According to Shelby, it will be possible to fully charge the batteries in just 10 minutes from the mains, thanks to an on-board system it is calling 'Charge on the Run'.
Once the Ultimate Aero EV's batteries are charged it will have a range of between 150 and 200 miles.
The manufacturer expects to roll out pre-production versions of the vehicle, which has a three-speed automatic gearbox, by June.
