About a couple of years ago; Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche, confirmed that Mercedes Benz will release an electric version of the Mercedes Benz SLS AMG. The all-electric supercar is said to be available by 2013. The car is said to make around close to 600bhp coupled with a lithium-ion battery pack.

Fast forward to today, the above mentioned supercar is ready and now it is known as the Mercedes Benz SLS AMG Electric Drive. It is scheduled to go on sale by the middle of next year and it makes much more power than the earlier promised power figures.

 

The SLS AMG Electric Drive makes an astonishing 740bhp and 999Nm of torque, powering all four wheels. This makes the car the most powerful electric car in the market and also in the AMG line-up. The company stated that the SLS AMG Electric Drive is capable of completing the century sprint in less than 3.9 seconds and will easily reach its top speed of 250km (electronically limited).

 

To compare it with the normal petrol powered Mercedes Benz SLS AMG, the 580bhp SLS AMG completes the century sprint in 3.6 seconds (not much of a significant difference). This is possible due to it not being burdened by a heavy battery pack. The SLS AMG Electric Drive

  • Japan: The trend that became a turn-off

    Ahh Japan. The destination that many travellers desire. The perennial trending subject on social media. Japanese cuisine, culture, quirks, technology, and everything kawaii have inspired endless posts, stories, reels, YouTube videos, and TikToks. If one didn't know better, you'd think it was the dream destination on this planet. While I love the food, the service and the shopping, the sheer number of tourists (me included) has become a turn-off. I'm not talking about those who inconven

    Japan is weird. I love it (Part 6)

    Fireflies. Not a topic I think about often, if at all, but here we are.  On a recent podcast episode, I learnt that the light that fireflies emit is nearly 100% efficient. That's amazing (nature generally is). And it is precisely the study of fireflies (and their light) that has allowed the development of more efficient LED lights.  On a whim, I did a bit of extra Googling, and lo and behold, Japan pops up once more, with yet another culturally-unique eccentricity.  In Japan, ther

    Forget resolutions, just focus on starting fresh

    The start of a new year is always a happy time for me. Apart from gatherings and mini reunions, January is when I reflect on everything I've accomplished last year, while mentally noting the things I still need to work on. Resolutions, though, are not for me. While it's not wrong to list some and strive towards them like goals, I think making resolutions is not the optimal way for me to reach new milestones, because more often than not, they're declared 'in the moment'. Or worse, after you'

    Zebras

    On a recent podcast episode, this hilarious nugget of information was brought up: "Zebras have the loudest farts".  What.  I have spent some time Googling this, and I cannot yet definitely verify the accuracy of this statement. But there is some scientific basis to it - zebras are hindgut fermenters, and there's a whole bunch of biology behind it but the important takeaway is that yes, zebras fart plenty. This also explains their 'bum-heavy' shape, similar to cows, horses, el
