A brand new design for a cutting edge electric urban car created by a former Formula 1 designer has been unveiled. Gordon Murray is one of the UK’s most renowned motor car designers and has been responsible for some of the most successful Formula 1 cars ever including the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.

Now Mr Murray has turned his attention to creating an eco-friendly car for the 21^st century. The result is the T.25 which has been designed with city driving in mind and features a number of innovative elements.

Side mirrors have been integrated into the car so as to minimise the potential for damage, plus the fuel cap can be accessed from both side of the vehicle for added convenience. The car will have the capability to reach maximum speeds of 80mph.

The T.25 measures just 2.4 metres in length and is 1.3 metres wide meaning it’s super easy to park on city streets. Plus the small compact design enables two of these vehicles to be parked side by side in an average sized garage.

Three people can be transported in T.25 although the interior can be adapted to carry less people and more stowage instead. The lightweight design aids fuel consumption meaning it’s very economical to run. In fact the whole design has been created with affordability in mind and the entire car will cost no more than £6,000 to produce, although the actual retail price is yet to be disclosed.
