British car brands are causing quite a stir in the automotive industry today, and now even left-field marques like Caterham are looking to take down the giants with its all-new concept, the Project V.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While its main competitors \u2014 the Alpine A110S and Lotus Emira \u2014 are petrol-powered, the Caterham Project V has a top trump up its sleeve that could future-proof it. That\u2019s right, it\u2019s electric. And it\u2019s not just an eco-friendly stunt, as the light but mighty ethos of Caterham\u2019s previous cars infiltrates the Project V\u2019s very premise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The single rear-mounted electric motor provides 268 BHP, giving the car a 0-62 MPH time of 4.5 seconds or less, an estimated top speed of 143 MPH, and a range of 249 miles. These figures are achieved thanks to the use of a carbon fiber and aluminum composite chassis, which brings the total kerb weight of the car to just 1,190kg, assuming it comes with its three-seat layout, rather than the optional four-seater configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this in mind, the Caterham Project V is designed to be a back-road blaster and a track-day toy. Per the marque\u2019s CEO Bob Laishley, \u201cAn electric Caterham of any shape and size has to stay true to what sets us apart from everyone else: being lightweight, simple and offering an unparalleled driving experience; that\u2019s our DNA.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All this could be coming in 2025 for a price under \u00a380,000 GBP\/$100,000 USD. Stay tuned to Hypebeast and Hypedrive for more news, and check out the car in more detail here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
