Longbow

Dear network, I'm sharing the Longbow secret manifesto explaining exactly how we will do this... please don't like, comment, repost or share this, as it is a top-secret document.... If you share it, there is a real risk that we will have more beautiful featherweight electric sports cars in the world. We don't want to cause too much disruption to large, slow-moving, publically listed car companies. I especially don't want established car manufacturers seeing this and then finally bringing cars to market that will compete with us. That would be a catastrophe #thecatisoutofthebag #longbow #FEV #electricvehicles

Thank you. It's been a whirlwind 24 hours launching Longbow. We have slept less than 6 hours between us, but the reception and unanimous support have been overwhelming and humbling. You do not often lay bare the product of years of work publicly for all to scrutinise. I promise you it is as terrifying as it is exciting. Fortunately I get the sense that people genuinely understand Longbow, our mission and appear to love our vehicles as much as we do. Thank you. Sharing a few choice headlines and articles from the past 24 hours. Special thanks to Oliver Kew and Jack Rix at Top Gear Publishing for being the first to share our story and for being tough, balanced and fair to us.

Some people coulda woulda shoulda made an electric sports car... ...that more than pleases the eye, is the antithesis of EV's state of play, and matches the pockets of all those people yet to acquire a mansion, yacht, or an obscene bank balance - maybe all 3! Then some people aren't the pair of engineering entrepreneurs I recently met up with at Bicester Motion - part of a startup trio... Welcome Longbow!?? Mark Tapscott,?Daniel Davey?, and Jenny Keisu have a collective vision, mission, and purpose energised and enabled by their collective talent, knowledge and experience - just take a look at their LinkedIn profiles for EVidence of all that! Here's the story of what they're in the process of delivering - presented in a 15 minute video we recently filmed with my good friend Mark Taylor-Hankins (cinematographer for both of my 'Motorsport In The Electric Age' documentaries by the way) So if YOU admire great engineering, hanker for all that Mark & Daniel suggest, and would love the see the emergence of a new British brand - an ELECTRIC BRAND...then THIS if for YOU! #electricvehicles #automotive #engineering #innovation

?? Buzz Lightpower!…filming at Bicester Motion today. Plugged in the movie lights to the vehicle’s onboard socket. REALLY looking forward to sharing the story of a brand new, quintessentially British electric vehicle journey - with a couple of the industry’s superstars… Worked with the best in the business. Watched and learned. And now - they’re at the very start of their next rEVolution...and taking aim at a relatively untapped market sector. All will be revealed early March. #engineering #automotive #electricvehicles #innovation
