If you've seen Tron and wondered what driving a [lightcycle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultraviolette-shockwave) at breakneck speeds would be like, wonder no more because the MonoTracer [electric car](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/theory-1) delivers that very same experience.

With an admittedly strange design, the MonoTracer is prepared for release by automative manufacturer Peraves. At the price of a cool $114,600, this two-seater will take you over 300 km on a single charge, thanks to the car's powerful lithium-ion batteries. In fact, the Guinness World Record has inaugurated the MonoTracer as the [fastest, most efficient electric vehicle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yksi-electric-vehicle) available. Suffice it to say that it can whiz down highways at speeds of 250km/hr with ease.

Although it doesn't leave a colored light stream in its wake, the MonoTracer meets the standards of its imaginary counterpart in almost every way. Luckily, you'll probably use this e-car to chaperone dates instead of fighting the insidious Master Control Program!
