I don't know if anyone else here ever had an electric radio controlled car, but I have been waiting for the full scale version ever since that day. I don't think most people realize the potential of a fully electric race car. One day there will be a 4wd vehicle with 4 motors, one for each wheel with a degree of control never seen before on a rally car.
Ok, it's not for 2018, but it will come one day. In the meantime, there will most likely be an interim solution. Manufacturers will be asking for this. I would rather see a jump straight to EV, but a hybrid with an accent on the development of the electric drive would be an interesting compromise. Something like a standard 1 l turbo engine/generator with free development of the electric drive. Through the years, the available power of the combustion engine would be reduced similar to what is happening in the FIA World Endurance Championship.
