By MotorTrend’s standard, the Owl is actually accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in just 1.6 seconds.It’s not hard to believe with this new video of the vehicle circulating in the media over the last week.

That was an impressive launch – probably even more than the Tesla Roadster prototype spied doing runs on Fremont factory’s test track last week.But aside from being powered by electricity and both having insane acceleration, the vehicles don’t have much in common beyond that.
