Well folks, I just got a very interesting call.

It seems the R1E prototype (or one of them) has been in the UK taking part in road-tests.

How do I know? One of the EV-Network/BVS members (and EV dealer) had Subaru turn up on his doorstep asking to charge it!

I'll try and see if he has any photos from the event

I have just googled for it with not much success.
Has anyone got any links to information on fit ?

Regards,
Rob

I've not heard of this vehicle before. It looks great, like a real car!

Hope they got a demo spin in it

Very nice. Hope they end up for sale and the price tag's not too high.

At last an EV that doesn't look too weird and could go mainstream.
