Interesting sharp fender angle just in front of the doors. Looks like the body hugs in and it could sport a vent like the Taycan.

Was really hoping that it was farther along than being held together by gaffer’s tape by now.
I think that’s production assembly to keep the weight down.

But you can spec it in deviated colors. ??

Typical test mule fare. I’m actually surprised this car is this far along, given they haven’t even revealed the Macan yet.

Spot on observation. The insert over the lower half of the door seems to fill the gap in.

The door handle looks like it was pulled from the parts bin. Hope that’s not final, it’s a pretty large pocket in the door though. Side mirror is also from the Taycan/992 parts bin.

I bet this thing is going to look a lot like a mini Taycan with the side door vents, mirror, rear light and diffuser.

I want this car now.
Well, I’m hoping it’s “MY 2025” meaning we should be able to order it in mid-late 2024, vs only getting allocations in 2025.

I'm interested in the battery tech and if Rimac had any part of it.

Hopefully it has this same Battery setup for better weight distribution like the Rimac

(It seems I'm the only one who took your message tongue-in-cheek as intended.. right?)
Well, I was kinda half-serious because I mean come on with the damn thing already. But yes I know that gaffer’s tape & such are the livery of teh mules.

Wonder if I'll be able to convince the wife and kids that a two seater is a good option again...

Yes. <Dad talking to the ensembled family>: "One lucky member of this family gets to ride with me. You decide who, I'll be outside in the car." <walks away, stops briefly> "I'll wait for 5 min."

You cannot coddle them. Life is harsh. (And then we die.)
