Included in the project are two Lightning GT sports cars. Constructed from lightweight aluminium, they use a lithium-titanate battery that can be charged in 10 minutes with the right kit but will take much longer if plugged in at home. The car has a claimed range of 180 miles. It’s powerful, too: 500bhp and a top speed of 130mph. I wonder what the other 19 are?   06-29-2009, 02:16 AM   #122 malcolm Senior Member     Join Date: Nov 2006 Posts: 1,240 Low carbon winners welcomed | Fleet News Quote: The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT), has welcomed the news that government funding worth £25 million has been allocated to the winners of the Technology Strategy Board’s (TSB) Ultra Low Carbon Vehicle Demonstrator competition.

All will be based on the GT’s drive train, but no solid date for release was given for those vehicles. Those will be all-electrics, like the GT, and will include a high-end, chauffeur-driven car, an SUV, and a smaller sports car with similar style to the GT.   Page 13 of 13 « First < 3 9 10 11 12 13 Bookmarks del.icio.us Digg StumbleUpon Google « Previous Thread | Next Thread » Thread Tools Show Printable Version Email this Page Display Modes Linear Mode Switch to Hybrid Mode Switch to Threaded Mode Posting Rules You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts BB code is On Smilies are On [IMG] code is On HTML code is Off Trackbacks are On Pingbacks are On Refbacks are On Forum Rules Similar Threads Thread Thread Starter Forum Replies Last Post Tesla vs. Lightning vs G-Wiz graham Video 2 09-25-2008 08:21 AM Lightning/Roadster comparison SteveF Electric Vehicles 54 08-25-2008 08:45 AM T-Rex Lightning is dead? tonybelding Electric Vehicles 1 07-20-2008 03:02 PM T-Rex Thunder & Lightning!
