Unknown car goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 1.5 seconds

Only 20 copies of Ararkis Sandstorm will be built. The rest – i.e. the specifications – are very minor.

You may never have heard of Ararkis Automobili. And with good reason. The British brand is only just getting started.

However, that does not change the fact that the ambitions are great. Although production remains quite small. In fact, only 20 copies of the brand's first car, which currently goes by the name Sandstorm, are to be built.

However, the car is a monster without equal. At least on paper. The British want to build one – or rather 20 – electric car with a dizzying acceleration time of just one and a half seconds. So from 0 to 100 km/h.

It is wilder than even Rimac Nevera, who has to settle for covering the same distance in 1.8 seconds.

However, unlike Nevera, Sandstorm exists on nothing but paper. But that does not change the fact that it is an electric car.

It should not just be able to go from 0 to 100 km/h in one and a half seconds. It must also be able to cover 500 kilometers on a single charge (if the accelerator can be held still, ed.) and charge the battery from 0 to 80 percent in 30 minutes.

But it will be an expensive game. Not to mention rabid animals. Every single one of the 20 cars that Ararkis Automobili will build must be able to reach 300 km/h.

And the British think they can take around 2 million dollars for that. That is, as per car. In Denmark, this will correspond to DKK 13.8 million. And that's for the registration fee.
