Some magnate's latest electric vehicle (5)
I believe the answer is:
tesla
'electric vehicle' is the definition.
I know that 'electric' relates to this answer. I also know that both the answer and definition are singular nouns
'some magnate's latest' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word (some of the parts of the word are used).
'TESLA' is hidden within 'magnates latest'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tesla that I've seen before include "electrical unit" , "American scientist" , "Inventor" , "Physics unit" , "SI unit; steal (anag.)" .)
