BTW, what is it with Britain and small sports car manufacturers? ]]>Mar 6th 2008 4:04PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/
Electric is cool, but having this and sounding like a golf cart must take some getting used too.]]>Mar 6th 2008 4:04PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/Mar 6th 2008 4:08PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/Mar 6th 2008 4:35PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/Mar 6th 2008 5:07PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/Mar 6th 2008 4:20PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/Mar 6th 2008 4:28PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/
...But that's not the point. I'm looking forward to seeing another small company launch an entry in this all-electric sports car class. After Tesla, Fisker (Karma) and LCC, one would think one of the real players in the industry would put the pieces together and build something - anything - truly green. I think we're all still waiting for that.

Then again, maybe the 'real players' are just waiting too, waiting to see market response and what kind of reliability such technology can offer. Anyone?]]>Mar 6th 2008 4:50PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/
Imo, the front end has hints of Jag, Aston and Ferrari. The side profile reminds me of a Vette sting-ray and an old Ferrari (Daytona?). I'm not so impressed w/ rear but it's still the first decent looking electric car concept as of yet. Just my opinion.]]>Mar 6th 2008 5:00PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/
Another doomed small production sports car...I've seen this happen too many times and it's just not funny anymore.

There are literally hundreds of talented students graduating from top transportation design schools around the world these days, do everyone a favor and ask for their help (www.cardesignnews.com) they know what they are doing and maybe that way the automotive industry won't get stuck in the tar pits like the big dinosaur it is...]]>Mar 6th 2008 5:06PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/Mar 6th 2008 8:23PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/Mar 6th 2008 11:21PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/Mar 7th 2008 8:58AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/Mar 7th 2008 1:10PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/May 3rd 2008 4:14AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/Jul 23rd 2008 11:22AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/06/lightning-gt-all-electric-sports-car-revealed/
Biggest complaint about these companies developing electric cars.... They slap a 6 figure price tag on it and expect people to buy it.
