I wish I could post the official Hi-res images (https://www.gordonmurraydesign.com/t.50-articles/gordon-murray-automotive-partners-with-racing-point-formula-one-team-to-ensure-t.50-supercar-has-most-advanced-aerodynamics-ever.html) but I don't know how.

Why won't they make it a hybrid? It makes no sense for a start-up to put up with such a big tax hit.
