Nissan shows off prototype electric car design, plans to race it at Le Mans

Nissan’s hybrid supercar might have had to bow out of its Le Mans run with transmission issues, but there are plenty of other famous racetracks that it can run around. The vehicle traveled over to Top Gear’s test track at Dunsfold Aerodrome, where Ollie Marriage put it through its paces. The Top Gear Magazine editor was full of praise for the vehicle, complimenting the amount of torque the electric engine provides. He also confessed that in combined mode, with 700hp at his disposal, he managed to spin the car out on his first lap. We’ve got the video of the test lap tucked in after the break, as well as a view taken straight from the cockpit for your armchair racing needs.
