I think someone got wet over the BMW Z4 and the Lotus Evora and thinks they can put the two together and call it their own idea.

actually, so far it's a drawing on a piece of paper. there's no guarantee that it will ever be produced. car companies are always coming up with these wild and crazy concepts for auto shows, many with no plans of ever making them. most probably, they will use the hybrid tech into the next generations of gtr or z along with their infiniti cars.

to turn attention away from the fact that the "new" 370z is exactly the same as the old 370z
