Built in the USA, the Lightning LS-218 has a top speed of 218mph and is based on the company’s racing motorbike. An electric motor that produces 200bhp powers the LS-218 and offers maximum power from almost tickover all the way to the motor’s 10,500rpm limit.

Porsche Cayenne based Eterniti Artemis production debut

The Eterniti Artemis – a titivated Porsche Cayenne – is shown in almost production-ready guise before a debut in Asia in 2013.

But while there were several Eclipses floating around our group of friends, none was as built as this car.
