Electric cars going hyper

Car manufacturers are branching out from the regular electric car market and into the hypercar segment, according to the FT. While electric cars are generally thought of as sensible, everyday cars that save you gas, a few specialists are producing insanely fast electric cars that rival any gasoline powered sports cars. Companies including Rimac and Detroit Electric are producing quiet cars with more than a 1,000 horsepower while traditional companies such as Jaguar and Mercedes are revamping classic models with an electric twist on them.
