NASCAR isn’t the place you’d expect to find a new electric vehicle make its debut, but the racing car company, on Sunday, threw the automotive world a curve ball, unveiling an electric stock car that boats twice the horsepower of the cars in its races.
The prototype debuted at the Chicago Street Race; it can produce 1,000 kW at peak power and is best suited for road courses and short oval tracks, the organization said. Developed in collaboration with Chevrolet, Ford, and Toyota, the vehicle was built by NASCAR engineers.
