The best of the best of the best - Lightning GT. I wish I could drive it one day - at least for a minute.
Produced by British company “Lightning Car Company Limited”.
It has a completely unconventional design:
- 4 electric motors - one inside each wheel
- 30 batteries spread throughout the vehicle as low as possible to make the center of gravity where it should be
- Lithium-titanate battery - charges in 10 minutes - obviously not from a normal electric outlet - but it’s good to know that it can
- body made out of carbon-fiber and Kevlar to be light and strong
- expecting to get 150-200 miles per charge
- one of the variations of this car will be a 700HP monster
This is a whole new level for an electric car. People used to say “electric cars are for girls” - well not any more.
The price tag is around $300,000. For this price among other features, you get ABS, navigation, “tire pressure and temperature monitoring system” and a “programmable external engine sound generator” ![]()
