Believe it or not, under this classic design is an extremely modern all-electric car. Donning a Shelby Daytona body design is the just unveiled 2015 Renovo Coupe which the company calls - ‘America's First All-Electric Supercar’. This electric sports car has been designed and built in Silicon valley of the US, and is based on a modified Shelby American CSX9000 rolling chassis.

Complimenting the timeless sporty design is an ultra powerful mill consisting of a lithium-ion battery and direct-drive twin sequential axial flux motors capable to churn out about 500PS and an unbelievable 1,355Nm of torque. The 2015 Renovo Coupe has enough fire power to rocket from 0-100kmph in a blistering sub-3.4 seconds, with a top-speed of close to 200kmph.
