Lighteing has unveiled it’s brand new all-electric GT sports car in London. This all-electric sports car is one of two cars in the world that rely on lithium-titanate battery technology and can be fully charged in just a few minutes. Though you’ll have to find somewhere with three-phase industrial power to take advantage of the quick charge, Lightening claims the car’s price tag of $239,400 is well worth it for the new battery technology.
