Tesla handed over the first 10 trucks to customers, with more deliveries in 2024.

    Really? That’s disappointing.

      I can’t find a top speed figure but it did have a 0-60mph of 10.5 seconds…and that was the manual.

      When equipped with a manual transmission, the DeLorean accelerated from 0 to 60 miles per hour (0 to 97 km/h) in 10.5 seconds as tested by Road & Track magazine.

      So it may have made it to 88 but it would take a looooong time to get there. Certainly longer than the Libyans need to hit it with an RPG.

        Even better, the original DeLorean didn’t have a speedometer that went to 88mph. They had to change the gauge cluster for the movie.
