Described as “Approved by Mother Nature”, the Dubuc Motors Tomahawk is the result of 12 years of R&D in pursuit of clean technology for personal transportation. Notably, the Tomahawk is the first electric 2+2 sports car with a top speed of 257 km/h, and can accelerate from 0-97 km/h in just three seconds.

The Tomahawk is the creation of new startup Dubuc Motors. Based initially in Quebec, Canada, the company sought capital for the Tomahawk through American crowdfunding platform StartEngine (one of the crowdfunding platforms that facilitates the U.S. JOBS [Jumpstart Our Business Startup] Act). “We moved our base because nobody wanted to invest in cars in Quebec,” says co-founder and company chief executive Mario Dubuc.

Dubuc is aiming to sell 1,500 units a year, initially starting with 200 in 2017. With an estimated purchase price of $110,000, Dubuc Motors is already accepting orders for the electric car through its official website.
