Repair? The car is not like most that will need scheduled maintenance, oil changes and such, it's virtually maintenance free. If and when needed is very easy as all parts can be purchased and installed easily. Netgain is a very old and proven company in the electric vehicle space. The Torq uses their Motor (Warp 9), Their 1400v controller and Vortex Lithium battery's that all are super reliable and any electric golf cart repair shop, or, EV conversion company (Many in the world) can fix anything that might come up. It's a real basic car when it comes right down to it. Rims, Tires, suspension... all can be purchased virtually anywhere since it was intended to be shipped and sold around the world. Most parts come from The Volkswagen golf and it has a BMW Transaxel from a Z3. Yes, a really simple electric car design is my point. If you are looking for all the comforts of most modern electric cars, the Torq's design platform was intended to appeal to the serious enthusiast. Light weight, performance that only the exotics can match, for hundreds of thousands less, and it gets "way more" attention! With a 1.3G Lateral handling, a blazing 0-60, and a simple low maintenance low repair cost. End result... Awesome!

Read what some have posted on message boards about this vehicle:

Well HELLO White!!! Track kit with extra air cooling installed to give this beast even more impressive performance With a 0-60mph in 4 seconds and 2X+ the Torque of a Tesla Roadster what color do I want? I hear the white body panels can be easily removed and wrapped in any color; Chrome, primers... or any pattern design you might like. I love this white!

612 lb-ft of TORQUE!!! More than twice that of the Tesla Roadster!!! They do call it the TORQ for a reason.

So the TORQ weighs in at about 2,200 pounds. That's nearly 600 pounds less than a Tesla Roadster and a whopping 2,600 pounds less than a Model S. So, although the Model S has comparable torque to the TORQ Roadster (430 lb/ft) it is pulling the same weight as two TORQ Roadsters *and* a sport bike combined.

The TORQ EV looks like a MONSTER side by side with a Tesla Roadster When do we get to see them race?!?


"Is this rear wheel drive?". In fact it is NOT. The TORQ is front wheel driven to keep the weight forward and your POWER on the road! To illustrate I snapped a picture of the electric motor in the front of the TORQ. Notice its almost at the nose and the differential is just behind it to drive the front wheels.


How many miles do you get on a single charge? I've been getting 80-90 miles per charge on most cycles but it REALLY depends on how you drive it. If it is a REALLY aggressive drive then you could see the range dip by 20% or more. But if you drive it like a minivan then you will get over 100 miles on a charge! I just proved 125 miles on a single charge. 

How long does it take to charge? It's designed to accept both a 110v 3 prong home style plug, and the industry standard EV station 240v plug-in. It can be charged as quick as 6-8 hrs. on the 240v plug and about a full day on the standard household 110v plug. The Torq has a 3.2kw variable voltage charger and a battery management system (BMS)


Does it have a top? No, the Torq was not designed to have a top as they were targeting the hardcore buyer/collector/racer, they had not planned to market it to the buyer looking for their daily driver car but rather their 3rd. car. This is as close as I've seen and driven to being in an Indy F1 race car. The silent performance and open roadster design is breathtaking.


In this listing I had to use my 2005 BMW GS Vin # because I have yet to register the Torq with DMV. The Torq is classified and gets registered as a Motorcycle, not a car. Very easy to insure and much lower cost than most cars. I have the Manufactures Statement of Origin (MSO) so all you will need to do is take it to any state DMV. 


So there you have it, that's all I can think about at the moment. If you have any question I can be reached at 310 863 0877

The White car is located in Marina Del Rey, CA, 10 minutes away from LAX airport. The others are down in San Diego. If serious and want a test drive, let me know. 


Thanks for reading. Good Luck!


If you are looking for a generic Hybrid or EV like; Nissan Leaf, Toyota Prius, Chevy Volt or maybe a higher performance vehicle like; Spyker, Fisker, Tesla... The Torq will take you to a whole new level in EV performance and coolness. You will feel like a world famous race car driver, every time you take her out.
This is not related to the Porsche family but rather an electric street legal race car that is only similar because it is also, really special.

Can a Corvette really be compared to a 911 with options costing more than the Chevy?

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

In this latest video from Drive, Chris Harris asks straight away, "Can you still compare a base Corvette to a Porsche Carerra?" That's an particularly interesting question in this film, as the 911 in question is a 400-horsepower Carrera S model that's been fitted with $60,000 in options. Base price of a Corvette Stingray? $51,995. Harris' tester features an automatic and some other goodies that push it right up to that $60,000 range. So yes, the options on the Porsche cost as much as this entire 460-hp Chevrolet.
Harris stresses that this isn't a full review, but he does exercise both cars in a more composed manner before reverting to his traditionally exuberant driving style. The impressions are, as always, spot on, with Harris favoring the pointy nature and V8 power of the Stingray, while enjoying the gearbox (Porsche's exceptional PDK transmission) and just about everything else on the 911.
Take a look below for the latest video from Drive, and let us know if you agree with Mr. Harris' views on these two sports cars.

Best luxury SUVs of 2022 and 2023

Mon, Sep 12 2022

Once upon a time, the idea of a luxury SUV meant a Range Rover, and even that was pretty agricultural by modern standards. Then Jeep Grand Cherokees and Ford Explorers started offering fancy, range-topping versions followed soon by Lexus, BMW and Mercedes dipping their toes in the water. And then the floodgates opened. Today, there is a staggering number of luxury SUVs available in every shape, size and price point. There are electric luxury SUVs like the Tesla Model X and Jaguar I-Pace, as well as gas-swilling, high-performance SUVs like the BMW X5 M and Cadillac Escalade V. Sports car makers Porsche, Aston Martin and Lamborghini have even dived in.  But of this great many, which are the best luxury SUVs? We sat down, scoured our reviews, took some votes, had some discussions and came up with the luxury SUVs we view as the best. They are listed alphabetically within the six segments listed below.  Best Subcompact Luxury SUV   |   Best Compact Luxury SUV   |   Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Two-Row) Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Three-Row)   |   Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Two-Row)   |   Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Three-Row)  Best subcompact luxury SUVs Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class Why it stands out: Outstanding space and versatility; legit luxury interior; amusing GLB 35 versionCould be better: Overwhelming and confusing tech interface Most subcompact luxury SUVs are a dubious value, with cramped interiors of marginal quality and unrefined driving dynamics. You'd be much better off paying less money for a loaded, non-luxury compact SUV. The Mercedes GLB is different, though. Its boxy design provides space few other subcompact SUV can match (luxury or otherwise), while its cabin design and feature content are in keeping with pricier Mercedes models. The quality's not exactly up to GLC standards, nor is driving refinement, but the difference is appropriate for how much you're saving and still perfectly acceptable. There's nothing dubious about buying a GLB.     Volvo XC40 Why it stands out: More features for the money; spacious and versatile interior; distinctive design; electric versionCould be better: Fuel-efficient base engine only available with FWD Most subcompact luxury models feel a bit like cheap knockoffs of their bigger, pricier brand mates. The XC40, by contrast, is a break from the Volvo norm in a good way.

Porsche 5 Series fighter may be electric

Wed, May 6 2015

We know that Porsche is developing a seventh model range for its lineup thanks to the March announcement from company boss Matthias Muller. The actual identity of this future vehicle remains a mystery, though. Autocar is coming down firmly on the side of the smaller Panamera, codenamed the Pajun, and speculates the new entry might be available in battery electric and hydrogen fuel cell versions based on recent patent filings. Porsche is famous for sticking with the rear-engine layout on the 911 for decades, even as the company moves the powertrain forward in other models. According to Autocar, the EV version of the Pajun might mark a return to these roots. The German brand is reportedly preparing a modified version of Volkswagen Group's MSB platform for the new vehicle. Called eMSB, the setup puts the batteries and electric motors at the back, and each rear wheel would receive power separately to allow for torque vectoring. The system is estimated to generate 420 horsepower, which is on par with the all-wheel-drive Tesla Model S 85D. The fuel cell Pajun would join the lineup later. The Pajun is rumored to take on the likes of the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but any luxury EV of that size must count the Tesla Model S as a competitor, too. According to Autocar, the styling takes cues from the Panamera Sport Turismo concept (pictured above) and could launch around 2018. Rumors of Porsche's Tesla-fighter were swirling for months before Muller's announcement, and talk of the Pajun has gone on even longer. Previous reports have suggested the possibility of a 300-mile range and an all-wheel-drive layout with 600 hp. While the actual design has remained ambiguous beyond the potential link to the Panamera, the model was possibly spied last year at the Porsche Design Tower in Florida.
