This 650-horsepower electric sports car comes with a holographic driving instructor and a giant tail fin for aerodynamics

Apex

Apex Motors, a UK car company, unveiled its AP-0 concept EV at an event in London earlier this month. The odd-looking supercar packs racing-inspired technology, a powerful motor, and some design elements that can only be described as unique.
  • UK-based boutique carmaker Apex Motors unveiled its latest electric supercar, the AP-0 concept, earlier this month.
  • The concept car boasts a carbon-fiber body and wheels, a feet-forward driving position, and a bumper-shredding ground clearance of just 3.7 inches.
  • A beefy, 650-horsepower electric motor powers the rear wheels and sends the lightweight car to 62 mph in just 2.3 seconds, and theAP-0's design is dominated by a giant tail fin that Apex says is a nod to the styling of Le Mans and Formula One racers.
  • Apex plans to begin manufacturing the production version of the car near the end of 2022, which may or may not differ drastically from this concept. It will go on sale for around $173,000 at current exchange rates.

A new all-electric or hybrid sports car seems to debut every week or two nowadays, meaning it's increasingly harder to set new creations apart from the ever-growing pack. Thus, it's only right for the ideas to get wilder by the day.

The Apex AP-0, a new, all-electric concept sports car from UK-based Apex Motors, lives up to that challenge at least, as far as the looks department is concerned.

The AP-0 debuted earlier this month with all the necessary features of an electric supercar in 2020. It has a super-powerful electric motor, mind-bending acceleration, loads of carbon fiber, and a top speed that pushes 200 mph.

But all of that is relatively expected in that class of car these days. What makes the AP-0 stand out upon first glance is the massive fin running down the rear half of the car, which gives way to a busy criss-cross of taillights out back a pairing so striking, it looks more fit for daydreams than the real world.

Looks aside, the AP-0 does offer up some impressive features, if they ever make their way into a production model. The car promises a feet-forward driving position where the feet stretch out in front of the hips, as opposed to having them below the waist like in most passenger cars a 650-horsepower, rear-wheel-drive layout, and an augmented-reality race instructor.
