Monty281 - Solved: True Cousins TC-X

Fellow Autopuzzlers, for a point please tell me the name of this car, what company made it and what is its claim to fame.

Don't be naughty! Stay away from Google Search by Image, kids.

Not much of an engine for what seems to be a dragster. Electric maybe?

You obviously know this car but the name is a bit different than you remember it. Locked for you to find the correct one.

Hi! Sorry, I have been away from the computer during the Christmas festivities. TC-X is correct, now if you could just round it out by writing the correct name of the building company, which is not True Brothers but something very similar. Still locked.

Dont worry, i’ve been super busy with all the holidays as well. I looked a bit more and found it was True Cousins. Not True Brothers. Makes sense because of TC-X!

That's it! True Cousins is a Danish company founded in 2007 by Glenn E. Nielsen and Hans-Henrik Thomsen (who are indeed cousins), specialized in electric racing vehicles (cars and motorcycles). The TC-X holds the record for the fastest electric car in the world over the 1/8 mile drag, with a time of 4.89 seconds. It has also been timed doing 0-100 km/h in 1.1 seconds.
