A new super car is born.The Lightning GT,developed by Lightning Car Company, is a 100% electric car. The engine is electric, of course, and generates 700 BHP. The top speed for this super car is more than 200 kmh. For an electric engine this car is very powerfull. The battery system, designed by NanoSafe, is the heart of the power. it’s new, it’s great, and it’s spelled “POWER”. The battery recharges very fast, for at least 250 miles only 10 minutes of recharging would be needed. The Lightning GT has another cool feature. Every time the car brakes or slows down, the kinetic energy is transformed into heat and forwarded to the battery as electricity. It self regenerates. For the bodywork, the UK designers used Carbon fibre,aluminium and Kevlar technology.The interior is a luxury one. It has incorporated Satellite navigation, an Ipod interface and a virtual engine sound. Of course , it has only two seats, so it’s tagged as a sport car. I don’t know … the bodykit is simillar somehow with the Dodge Viper. Especially the front of the car. Anyway, it’s truly a super car. And this time it’s not made by the germans. The british company “wins terrain” in the super car battlefield.Though the engine is powerfull, a small glitch is this : it accelerates rather slow. From 0 to 60 kmh in almost 4 seconds. But we can overpass that. The other features of the engine saves it’s reputation : total weather proofing,several levels of redundancy and a total energy transfer. These make it a super engine. The price for this super car is not yet set, because the Lightning GT will be launched on the market just before the end of 2008. Until then, let’s hope the UK will bring on the market a few more sport cars .

Once again, ABT Sportline, Audi’s tuner brings us a super car. The Audi TT Roadster is the newest tuning made by ABT. Upgrades were made at the bodykit. Actually the whole bodykit was replaced with a new one designed be ABT. This new bodykit enhances the car’s look together with the 4-pipe rear muffler. Before the tuning, it looked like a sport car. But now it looks like a super sport car. As for the wheels, ABT recommended 19 inch or 20-inch wheels, because the car would look better. What car doesn’t look better with 9-inch wheels ?This Audi is equiped with a V6 engine of 3,2 liter which generates 355 HP. With the V6 engine , you can get from 0 to 100 km/h in aproximative 5 seconds. Another upgrades made by ABT are the suspension kit and the brake system. The suspension kit was replaced with a new ABT version, adapted to the car’s requests, and the brake system was again replaced with the ABT version, this one having a larger brake disc.This new convertible from Audi deserves a place in the super cars top. Not for the engine, but for the design.
