The Detroit Electric SP.01 is a proposed battery electric vehicle designed by the Detroit Electric company and originally unveiled to the media in Detroit and then publicly at the Shanghai Motor Show in 2013. It is powered by an air-cooled lithium polymer battery.
It formally launched in the UK in 2017 as a production ready model, but never progressed beyond prototype stage.
