It's like the Z31 and Ferrari 308 GTS had a baby

This thing categorically makes me happy. Fills me with hope that the electric car market will not be a barren wasteland of bubble-shaped crossover vehicles.

I cannot get over how fucking awesome that thing looks. Hyundai is crushing it as of late.

Hydrogen powered.

Toyota just announced they're building a large battery plant in the US, but they really see hydrogen as the main source of future energy even though hydrogen fueling stations are almost non-existent.

Hydrogen powered.

Well, not really. It's a hybrid. The Top Gear write-up mentioned that, specifically:

"The N Vision 74 also features a 62.4kWh battery, which can be rapid-charged from the mains. So, it's an electric car first, but when the battery starts to run flat, the hydrogen fuel cell can kick in to extend range. All with zero emissions besides water. The down side is all this engineering is heavy."

Still, it's impressive tech.

This is fucking SICK. Total late 80's/early 90's Japanese hero car vibes. Wouldn't have been mad if this is what the 86 revival would've looked like. I would buy this without second thought.

Yeah i absolutely love the way this thing looks.
