The Lightning GT is a battery-electric sports car under development by the Lightning Car Company, in Peterborough and due for release in 2013.
The project was initially launched to the public in July 2008 at the London Motor Show, with deliveries expected in 2009, but sales to the public have been put back to 2013, and limited to only twenty cars in the first year.

Famous quotes containing the word lightning:
“But the lightning which explodes and fashions planets, maker of planets and suns, is in him. On one side elemental order, sandstone and granite, rock-ledges, peat-bog, forest, sea and shore; and on the other part, thought, the spirit which composes and decomposes nature,—here they are, side by side, god and devil, mind and matter, king and conspirator, belt and spasm, riding peacefully together in the eye and brain of every man.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
