I'd settle for smooth pavement and non-crumbling bridges, once we've got that down we can start working on the Electric Avenue.

A surprisingly good overview of the car, a lot of the misgivings I had about the giant ipad stapled to the dash don't seem as bad now. I especially like how the two physical scroll wheels are context sensitive, unfortunately switching context still requires eyes off the road. I'm still in the camp of touchscreens don't belong in cars but that's looking like more of a personal preference now. What would be neat is the ability to reconfigure the buttons yourself, for instance if I always want the left wheel to scroll for volume and the left/right to be track select, but the right wheel scrolls for climate control temp and left/right press would be fan speed. Between that and the stalks that'd be 90% of the daily interaction with my car right there, if I need to screw with anything else I can wait for a light or just set it before I leave.

Maybe I'm old fashioned but it seems like a poor life choice to top 100mph while filming your dash with a phone, and then keep your foot in it even after the noise starts.

I will always stand in awe at how corporate interests tricked the common idiot into doing their PR for them, for free, usually against the person's own best interests.

The other Rimac was fairly hot once Richard Hammond got done with it.
