" . . shows the Owl hitting 62 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour) in just 1.9 seconds."
And just how is that relevant to the average driver?

The Tesla will cost 1/10th that, and likely be tweaked to be faster.

You would think they would cough up the yen to rent time at a track instead of testing in a parking lot.

“The automaker wants to repeat the run with road tires in hopes of achieving the same time.”
With AWD and unheated non-treated street tires, only a slight chance it would succeed. If the vehicle had only two-wheel drive, no chance at all it would succeed

That’s got to be the worst test track I’ve ever seen. There’s a deep ditch to the end and right. How stupid are those guys?

No reverse? They had to push it backward. At what is mind-boggling is that they couldn’t find a longer runway for testing?

Apparently, the engineers were very confident in the brakes. I know that land is scarce in parts of Japan but that was a disaster waiting to happen.

WOW! An electric motor can turn REAL fast when you drastically reduce its friction.
Who wooda thunk it.

That car would be able to do about 15 MPH, and have to get body and frame work done after driving on Houston streets.
And it sounded like my ol’ 1980’s RC cars taking off. Ugh.
