Think "electric car" is synonymous with "slow"? Well, think again. England's Bristol Car (now owned by Kamkorp Group) is set to manufacture an extended-range, electric, supercar that can reach 186 mph. I don't think the price tag on these handmade jobs will be cheap, though. If all goes as planned, Bristol will debut its supercar this summer at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, "the largest motoring garden party in the world."
The festival runs this year from July 12-14. If you're in London and want to zip down to Goodwood, it's an easy trip. Take the train from London's Victoria Station to Goodwood (1 hour, 40 minutes; 60 miles southwest of London), then hail a taxi to the festival location. The festival, on the gorgeous grounds of the Goodwood House, is replete with entertainment, fine dining, and the "biggest, best, fastest, loudest, and most outrageous vehicles of all time." Oh, and you'll very likely run elbows with celebrities....
