The Sinclair C5 was developed over a number of years , but was officially launched in a blaze of publicity on January 10th 1985 at Alexandra Palace,North London. Sadly, by November 1985 it was all over....
Yes iPod Touch and iPad. I think that answers question.
No, the Sinclair C5 is no longer in production. Launched in 1985, it was a small electric vehicle designed by Sir Clive Sinclair but faced commercial failure and ceased production within a few years. Although there have been various revivals and interest in electric vehicles inspired by its design, the original C5 is not being manufactured today.

Sir Clive Sinclair
Clive Sinclair was a British inventor and entrepreneur best known for his pioneering work in personal computing and home electronics. He founded Sinclair Research Ltd., which produced the ZX Spectrum, one of the first affordable home computers that gained immense popularity in the 1980s. Sinclair also developed innovative products like the Sinclair C5, an electric vehicle, and various calculators. His contributions significantly influenced the early computing landscape in the UK.
It was made by Sinclair Research, founded by the inventor Sir Clive Sinclair. Besides the MK14, the ZX80 was the first home computer for under £100, supplied in kit form in 1980 for home-assembly. A more expensive assembled version was also available. Sinclair Research went on to produce the more successful ZX81 (1981) and ZX Spectum (1982), but then went into meltdown with three successive product failures: the Sinclair QL computer (1983), the TV80 pocket TV (1984) and finally the Sinclair C5 (1985). Sinclair Research was finally sold to Sir Alan Sugar's Amstrad, while Sir Clive retained Sinclair Research Limited as a one-man company to promote his inventions.
