Xing Mobility, a Taiwanese electric car manufacturer, is looking to take on the next-generation Tesla Roadster by building a faster and more performance-driven electric supercar. The car manufacturer has yet to release images of its first vehicle, but an early prototype called Miss R has been shown. While specifications for the Miss R have not been released, Xing Mobility claims that its eventual supercar will have 1,341 horsepower, will accelerate 0 to 100 kph in just 1.8 seconds and will feature rally-inspired all-wheel drive.
The Miss R was recently displayed by Xing Mobility at the 2018 AutoTronics Taipei show and was presented alongside the Mr.T truck. This truck, also made by Xing Mobility, is a modified light-duty commercial truck and is powered by 6,300 lithium-ion battery cells. These two showings prove impressive for the upstart company as they have already displayed some amazing prototypes with a clear eye for future development.
