Watch this space: Dyson hints it could make an electric car

It’s revolutionised how we clean, will it do the same for our cars?

Dyson is a sucker for innovation (excuse the pun), so it's hardly surprising the company isn't ruling out making its own electric car.

Dyson is famous for its cordless Dyson vacuum, but also has a series of fans and lights on the market. Always keen to venture elsewhere, the firm has now revealed it's not 'ruling out' the possibility of releasing its own electric car.

He even hinted that the company is already working on it: "If you do what we do and invent disruptive technologies and have thousands of engineers working on these projects for as long as 15 years, then you want to keep that work in the lab until it's ready."

Dyson revealed in the same call that its revenues were up 10 per cent in 2014 to £1.3billion, thanks to a surge in demand for its products. It's clearly not short of a quid or two, so if it did have plans to make an electric car, we doubt funding the project would be an issue.
