Lightning Car Company Lightning GT
The Lightning GT is an electric powered sports car from the Lightning Car Company based in the UK. The Lightning GT mixes British sports car styling with racing car technology and state of the art NanoSafe™ battery power and Hi-Pa Drive™ electric motors. The stylish body is crafted from carbon fibre/Kevlar. One of the advantages of electric vehicles is their ability to offer maximum available power to the wheels at any speed, unlike a petrol engine where maximum power is only obtained high up in the rev range. To help effectively deliver this power to the road the Lightning GT uses electronically controlled traction control which negates wheel spin and unbalance in the power being applied. Because there is no engine, the Lightning GT has a maintenance-free motor with just a few moving parts. Together with the control electronics and special batteries, the Lightning GT will not need anywhere near the servicing of other sports cars. Much of the technology housed in the Lightning GT was d...
