It&#8217;s definitely more of a &#8220;form follows function&#8221; type of car. At its core, the S1 is an open top lightweight road and track car, with a modular design. Sin Cars calls it a &#8220;revolutionary street legal racing car.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Buyers get to choose different types of engines, drivetrains, interiors and even body styles, and looking at the numbers, we can&#8217;t help but be impressed &#8211; although let&#8217;s take the powertrain options one at a time.<\/p>\n<p>Choosing between the plug-in hybrid, full electric and internal combustion versions can be as easy as looking at the performance figures for each and then figuring out which suits your driving style best.<\/p>\n<p>The plug-in hybrid model has a 24 kWh battery, working together with an 89 kW (120 HP) electric motor and a 255 HP 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, offering a range of 200 km (124 miles). The best part, the whole thing weighs just 220 kg (485 lbs).<\/p>\n<p>Going fully-electric means opting for at least an 89 kW (120 HP) motor, a sequential racing gearbox, and a 24 kWh &#8211; 48 kWh battery pack. The EV range can be anywhere between 200 to 400 km (124-248 miles).<\/p>\n<p>While both options sound good, wait until you hear about the internal combustion figures on this car. First of all, there are two power units to choose from: a 2.3-liter turbo and a 3.5-liter, the former good for 310 HP and 434 Nm (320 lb-ft) and the latter 365 HP and 570 Nm (420 lb-ft). In a straight line, the 2.3-liter version will hit 100 km\/h (62 mph) in 2.8 seconds, whereas the 3.5-liter needs just 2.5 seconds. It&#8217;s one of the quickest cars present at this year&#8217;s Geneva Motor Show.<\/p>\n<p>Sin Cars are pricing the Sin S1 from $49,900 in the US, with production scheduled to commence in 2019.<\/p>\n<p><em>Warning&#8230;new images added to the gallery<\/em><\/p>\n<h3 \/>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/cars2news\/wp-content\/picss\/0114\/jyh234upmvr.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"163\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/cars2news\/wp-content\/picss\/0114\/bcvdpcd3glm.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"163\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/cars2news\/wp-content\/picss\/0114\/wcoxawarzii.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"163\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/cars2news\/wp-content\/picss\/0114\/5xwjv40xkie.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"163\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/cars2news\/wp-content\/picss\/0114\/gq3hu1am53g.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"163\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/cars2news\/wp-content\/picss\/0114\/lzr2rrdst0s.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"163\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/cars2news\/wp-content\/picss\/0114\/1allqmgtywl.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"163\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/cars2news\/wp-content\/picss\/0114\/oluiwdo5fjh.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"163\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/cars2news\/wp-content\/picss\/0114\/uxnmz3cbirx.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"163\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>more photos&#8230;<\/p>\n<h4>Image credits Guido ten Brink \/ SB-Medien &amp; NP<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the new Sin S1, it&#8217;s probably best you don&#8217;t get too caught up in its appearance, otherwise you probably wouldn&#8217;t get very far with it, figuratively speaking.
