There are many companies which have come and gone in the electric sports car market, there are many companies which have announced groundbreaking technology only for it to fall apart at the end. The introduction of Detroit Electric to the market has certainly created a possible new long-term competitor for Tesla Motors but this will certainly be a challenge because Tesla has managed perfectly its ongoing dissent to the top of the electric vehicle hill.
The introduction of the Detroit Electric SP:01 has been welcomed with open arms and even though there will be a slight delay in manufacturing of the vehicle it is still much anticipated. Whether indeed the company can “catch up” with Tesla remains to be seen as this is certainly a challenge that many have taken but few have completed.
