Fresh From Geneva: Pre-Order Your Lightning GT Electric Car

March 5th, 2008 by BallerRide

With a launch date of early 2009, pre-orders for Lightning Car Company’s electric GT are rolling in. If you heard about the Lightening GT back in June 2007 be prepared to meet a new vehicle, as the car’s design has been completely re-vamped.

Using nano titanate battery technology, the GT’s electric ‘Hi-Pa Drive’ engine pulls with 700 hp “in the wheels,” making 0-60 in four seconds with a top speed of 130 mph. The Lightning GT will come in a luxury model, a lightweight sport version, and an extended range model that can run up to 250 miles on one 10-minute charge. The car’s body is made from carbon fiber and Kevlar, and the interior has the option of full leather trim.
