Yes it's a 4 door GT, basically what they were talking about when the next XJ was going to be all electric years ago, then got cancelled.

Is this the "range extender" uncle tony has talked about? I like this guys "no bullshit" type approach to most things. He's an old time hot rodder/muscle car lover. So you will find nothing there about european cars.


I think he is right, the idea of the range extender isn't to extend range, it is to prolong the life of electric throw-aways after the battery has taken a dump
