The Radical SR8 now going green with battery powered SR0
The Racing Green Endurance team of Imperial College London is in the process of running a battery powered version of the Radical SR8 for a distance of 16,000+ mile length of the Pan-American Highway called the SR0. Riding through picturesque locales, the SR0 should be able to achieve a 242-mile (390 km) US EPA Highway Cycle range with 53 kWh's of Thunder Sky lithium ion batteries. As far as speed is concerned, the car can go up to 500 hp from its twin motors and should hit 60 mph in 7 seconds. However the top speed will be limited to 124 mph.
