Behold: the Mazda RX-10 Vision Longtail – a concept render by Maximilian Schneide of a mid-engined supercar inspired by the legendary 787B Le Mans-winning racer.
The design ‘envisages’ a hybrid 2.3l turbocharged ICE coupled to two electric motors at the front wheels for a combined 1,030bhp and a top speed of 436km/h.
