The world's fastest electric car - which has a top speed of 155mph and manages 0-62mph in just 3.7 seconds - has been unveilled at the Shanghai Motor Show.
The SP:01 is manufactured in America by a company called DetroitElectric, which claims to have produced the first ever electric car in Detroit back in 1907.
Choosing China over Europe and the US to reveal its state-of-the-art machine is significant. The Chinese government has placed itself behinda major push to invest in electric carsacross the nation.
Albert Lam, the chief executive of Detroit Electric, told Sky News: "I think China has the right policy, rightincentive, and the right drive from the government and China really does need some solution with their air pollution.
"There will be a lot of demand for this type of vehicle as well as future vehicles we are going to launch."
