A year ago,
Espera Sbarro Montbéliard School of Design unveiled a two-seat, 137-horsepower,
all-electric concept car called Intencity at the
Geneva Motor Show. Last September, the school showed off a
V8-powered rear-wheel-drive hot rod with 360 horsepower called Eight at the
Paris Motor Show. For this year's Geneva craziness, design house Sbarro (no relation to the Italian food chain) is shooting for a compromise of sorts by pitching a bit of plug-in hybrid-electric trickery.
Next week, Sbarro will show off what it calls the Réact' E.V. (for "Ecological Vehicle") in Geneva. The car will combine a 210-horsepower gas engine made by
Peugeot with two 137-horsepower electric motors, so we're talking about a pretty speedy car here. Little surprise, then, that Sbarro says it'll enter the React 'EV, which has a 24-kWh battery, in the Monte Carlo Rallye of New Energies in late March.
