Ah, not sure I'll own one again ...

Everyone will be going EV. Sad, but a reality

Question is - can jag create a sporty, luxury EV that excites? Or will they all be dull...
Personally I like the sound of a V8 and will find it hard to switch, however fast and smooth the EV might be

See attached for Mclaren who have an even more acute challenge

The I- Pace that blew my Vanden Plas off the road looked pretty good to me (even without noise)!

Agreed! Have driven the iPace on a number of occasions and can't wait to add one to the stable.
