GreenGT
Good news has been
showering the world of the Le Mans GT Racing. With the apparent
misunderstandings between several Formula 1 owners and the sport’s governing
body, the FIA, some teams are threatening to move to Le Mans, including F1’s
oldest citizen, Ferrari.
While the racing gene
will still be in man’s blood, the type of cars he’ll be racing with is still in
doubt. The GreenGT electric racer, however, keeps the future of racing safe.
This EV has been certified by the FIA and will sport a carbon fiber chassis
with a composite body. It will be powered by a pair of water-cooled 100 kW
electric motors delivering up to 450 horsepower.
Jolting the electric
motors are lithium-ion batteries that could be recharged by the solar cells on
the body. The car will weigh just under 1900 lbs and is touted to reach a top
speed of 171 mph. News that 22 units will be available to the eco-conscious
public with a racing heart just made the GreenGT an even sweeter car.
