    The brit car maker Bristol is obviously doing a come back. They are secretive about a Project Pinnacle. Anyone has more info about the car? It is going to have a BMW engine, wich makes sense since both have roots in the aeroplane manufacturing.

    Bristol is now part of Kamkorp that owns Metrocab inside the Frazer-Nash Group.
    For years they have researched hybrid vehicles, with electric power provided by a IC engine as generator.
    The new Metrocab taxis are to be launched in 2016.
    I expect the next generation of Bristols to be mostly electric, but with a BMW range-extender generator/propulsor engine. That may happen in 2017.

    I think that the future Bristol will be very different from the previous models.
