Introducing the all-electric Callum Skye, a vehicle that combines sleek and stylish looks with off-road capabilities. Created by UK firm Callum Designs, the Skye is the first house-brand vehicle from the company founded by renowned automotive designer Ian Callum.
Designed for both city streets and off-road adventures, the Skye features an eye-catching design that sets it apart from other off-road vehicles. Its exterior incorporates a unique accent loop intersected by a strong horizontal structure, flanked by organic forms at the front and rear. The vehicle is also equipped with glass in both the upper and lower sections of its two doors, adding a touch of elegance.
Underneath its stylish exterior, the Skye boasts a robust construction, including a space frame chassis and trail-capable suspension. The enclosed cabin offers a 2+2 layout, providing ample space for passengers.
While detailed technical specifications are yet to be revealed, the Skye is expected to be powered by a 42-kWh lithium-ion battery pack. This battery pack is estimated to provide a range of 170 miles (274 km) per charge. Additionally, an optional ultra-fast-charging battery will reportedly take just 10 minutes to fully charge the vehicle from empty.
In terms of size, the Skye measures approximately 4,047 mm long and 1,900 mm wide (159.3 by 74.8 in). With a weight of 1,150 kg (2,535 lb) and a 50:50 front-to-rear-axle weight distribution, the vehicle promises a balanced and dynamic driving experience. While the specifics of the motor and top speed have not yet been disclosed, it is projected that the Skye will be able to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in under four seconds.
According to Ian Callum, the Callum Skye is designed to exceed expectations by offering minimal mass and maximum capability. The vehicle offers exceptional usability and is said to be an absolute joy to drive. With its striking design and versatility for both on-road and off-road adventures, the Skye is set to make a statement in the world of electric vehicles.
