Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
Was that Tesla a metallic bottle green Neil or is it my screen playing tricks?

Looks like a dark grey/mid blue to me.

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
Yes I'd have thought that more likely James, but when I zoomed in and compared the body colour to the end of the number plate blue, it looks decidedly greeny on my screen but I didn't think they did one, hence the question.

Not bottle green Mick, when I first saw it I thought it was just a black, some people like black cars I know, but not me if I could afford a Tesla I wouldn't choose a black one. Back home with the photo it looks more obviously gray than black.mickthemaverick wrote: ↑14 Jan 2021, 10:58 Was that Tesla a metallic bottle green Neil or is it my screen playing tricks?

PSA's finest Vauxhall e-Corsa
The e-corsa and the Peugeot 208-e share the same platform. The subtle diffs are explored here.

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
Saw an ID3 on the move today, white one, so I think a different one to the one I saw the other week.

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
BMW i8 pulled up beside me at the lights today, blue ,black and white. It took off so fast I couldn't see if it was a hybrid or full electric and no chance of picture as I was driving!!

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
This morning (around 07:00) I saw what I believe to be an Audi e-tron (according to the side badges) on Netherland plates.

I did discover the perhaps appropriate definition of the "tron" bit of the name Audi chose.Hell Razor5543 wrote: ↑05 Feb 2021, 09:51 This morning (around 07:00) I saw what I believe to be an Audi e-tron (according to the side badges) on Netherland plates.

Maybe Audi did indeed consult the urban dictionary for the name of their flagship EVA verb. To "tron" someone is to rush past said person who is walking to get ahead of them, usually in a line or queue; popularized in both Tron movies as the Light Cycles.

Either that, or try to get some of the image of Jeff Bridges (who starred in two futuristic films; "Tron" and "Tron Legacy").NewcastleFalcon wrote: ↑05 Feb 2021, 10:02I did discover the perhaps appropriate definition of the "tron" bit of the name Audi chose.Hell Razor5543 wrote: ↑05 Feb 2021, 09:51 This morning (around 07:00) I saw what I believe to be an Audi e-tron (according to the side badges) on Netherland plates.

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
I wonder how long it will be before we have to start an "ICE Vehicles: What have you spotted?" thread. My guess is 2026/27
