Land Rover Defender Electric driven

Few forms of propulsion can bring unexpected advantages. Land Rover was commissioned to make an electric Defender by the Londolozi Game Reserve in South Africa. It's an open vehicle sprouting eight high-mounted chairs for viewing wildlife. Electric drive makes it quiet, so as to creep up on them. You'd expect that. The unexpected but vital advantage is that if said wildlife should look upon the vehicle and its passengers as a charcuterie trolley, it can travel as fast in reverse as it can going forwards.
