2008 Lightning GT


New electric car Lightning GT 2008 - front view

For many years, people have been trying their best to make a battery electric vehicle, that will be able to utilize chemical energy, use batteries and do not pollute our environment. Each car manufacturer at least once in his life thought and dreamt about replacing an internal combustion engine with its cheaper and better analogue – electric motor. The Universe is the only one and we all live there, and it is not important how rich are you, we breath the same air, and because of greenhouse defects, air pollutants from large industrial enterprises. But, everything is not so easy, the cost of batteries for such engines is incredibly high, the distance of traveling is limited by the battery re-charging. Sometimes, these cars can do a sudden harm to a person – they present an electrical hazard. But nobody wants to loose in this games, so a lot of models will be made, but let’s turn out attention to one of the most prominent cars in this category.

2008 Lightning GT. The Lightning Car Company in 2006 made a decision to develop a brand-new electric technology for a prestigious sport car. Finally, the new car was made. It is powered by a very popular technology NanoSafe™, has an incredible acceleration speed 700 bhp and can develop a speed more than 130 mph. 2008 Lightning GT it is a some kind of hybrid, it is a car made from combination of classic car design with design of British sport cars, adding racing technology, multiplied by an implementation of electric motor. This car was designed in UK and was much spoken about.

Main characteristics of 2008 Lightning GT:

  • Unbelievable economy (it is much cheaper to have this car than a petrol car)
  • Luxurious interior (contains the whole possible innovations, such as i-pod interface)
  • Great safety features (a new technology of battery production helped to make them thermally stable and more than safe)
  • Applying of new technologies (NanoSafe™ and Hi-Pa Drive™)
  • Smooth electric power
  • Innovative braking system (every time you are stopping or slowing down, batteries charge economizes)
  • Environmental-friendly car (it doesn’t pollute air)
  • Hand-made body work

Sometimes, we use terms, notions and even don’t know their authentic or (what is even worse) right meaning! For example, let’s take such word as NanoSafe™. I suppose not everybody knows for sure what does it mean (actually I didn’t know before this). All the concepts of previous electric cars were based on the a rather unsafe technology of production, but due to the US company Altairnano Inc., in 2006 there appeared a completely new technique of ultra safe battery production. the result is Nanotechnology-made batteries. They are: longer-lasting, safer than the previous ones, they can charge easier and faster and they are much more powerful.

Hi-Pa Drive™. It is another notion, that is almost in a common use nowadays, but let’s clarify this term as well. This technology was developed by PML Flightlink Ltd and deals with motor boosting. Due to this technology we can speak about an ultra high power density. Due to this technology yin can press the wrong button and! Nothing bad will happen, because this failure won’t stop Lightning GT from operating right.

What is more – this car is a good-looking car. It will help you to make first of all your street, then your city and THEN the Earth around us cleaner and our children will breath fresh air!
