As noted at the auto blog TopSpeed, Swiss-based automaker Green GT is in the process of developing an FIA-spec electric race car. Built with a carbon chassis and a fiberglass body shell, the Green GT will be powered by two-phase synchronous motors each capable of 210 horsepower, producing a total output of 402 hp.
Green GT recently presented the car under a Le Mans prototype with a Sprint body at the Ecole Polytechnique de Lausanne -- with no less a luminary than FIA president Jean Todt on hand to determine the performance and validity of the concept electric racer in a competitive setting.
Just goes to show how far the gamut of emerging, pure-EV technology spans, and is going to span. The track at LeMans is long way from your typical country road.
Nice information about race cars that meets the EV technology. The thing is, if the race car go for the extra mileage and hit the highest speed? Let's see if there's no possible over heat.
