This is the Ora Lightning Cat concept and while it features an all-electric powertrain, it does take plenty of styling inspiration from Porsche, both the Panamera and 911.
Unveiled at the Shanghai Auto Show, the
Lightning Cat has a set of simple oval-shaped headlights and lacks a front
grille. Great Wall has also equipped the vehicle with a unique set of wheels
with curved spokes finished in silver. Making the car stand out even further is
an intriguing two-tone paint finish combining a matte grey finish with metallic
bronze accents on the doors and front wheel arches.
While the front does somewhat resemble a
911, the roofline of the Lightning Cat is unique and gently curves back from
the windshield. The car is also equipped with an active rear wing as well as a
tailgate and taillights not dissimilar to the VW Beetle, even if the rear end
treatment – again – takes inspiration from Porsche’s styling.
The inside of the Lightning Cap presented
in Shanghai is clad in bright orange upholstery across the seats, dashboard,
steering wheel, and door panels. Also found within is a sporty three-spoke
steering wheel, a widescreen infotainment system, a second touchscreen on the
center spine, and digital gauges. Seats in the second row are finished in a
shade of dark brown.
Great Wall has equipped the vehicle with a
pair of electric motors that provide drive to all four wheels. The car
manufacturer says the eventual production model will be able to hit 100
km/h in just 3.5 seconds.
