I followed a Nissan Leaf on a journey today. The driver was clearly having fun out accelerating the cars next to him at traffic lights. I want to be the person out accelerating other cars (within the speed limits honestly) because that is a key thing I love about a Lotus. If that means going electric then I am for that as long as its still corners on rails and feeds back to the driver as it always has ... hope that package is compatible.

""I want to make cars that people can have fun with, but which they can live with on a day-to-day basis," he says, "that means the ergonomics, the practicality, the ingress and egress - all the things that make a car easier to live with.""

However this statement worries me. What compromises are required to do that.
