Electric cars to be powered by AA-style batteries

A NEW COMPANY is claiming its new design of battery could see future electric cars powered by batteries no bigger than the current AA size. LipraLoof Techologies Ltd, a new start-up, has teamed up with City Car Club to trial the new technology in its fleet of vehicles. The new batteries use a complex mix of metal hydrates to create a quad, or 4A battery, which produces far more power than a standard battery.

How much does the Lamborghini Huracan LP610-4 cost? That’ll be from £180,720.

The new Lamborghini Huracan (pictured) starts at £180,720 It took Lamborghini a very long time to come up with a replacement for the Gallardo, but it finally managed to reveal its replacement – the Lamborghini Huracan – just before Christmas after a long and tedious attempt at generating interest in the reveal with a pointless series of teaser videos. We guessed that Lamborghini would be looking to push the price of the Huracan up towards that of its main competitors – the McLaren 12C and Ferrari 458 – and it seems they’ve done that with a price that starts at almost £50k more than the Gallardo did in the UK. The Supercar Kids have managed to get their hands on a price list for the Huracan in the UK, and it seems Lamborghini are wanting £180,720, plus £3k for delivery and £1,120 for registration, making an on the road price of £184,840.
