Mercedes-Benz Silver Lightning

The Mercedes-Benz Silver Lightning (also known as the Silver Arrow) is an electric concept car that first appears in Asphalt 8: Airborne.

Overview
The Mercedes-Benz Silver Lightning appears to be front-engined by design (although the Nissan GT-R NISMO and Savage Rivale GTR are actually the most powerful front-engined cars in the Asphalt series). The Silver Lightning runs on omni-directional wheels that can turn it to virtually any dimension except upwards. Another feature of the car is the Mag-Tech Roof, which uses small lightweight magnetic squares. They can be quickly put together to make a roof, or easily contracted to make a convertible.

Asphalt 8: Airborne
The Mercedes-Benz Silver Lightning is one of three electric vehicles by Mercedes-Benz, alongside the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Electric Drive and Mercedes-Benz Biome. The Silver Lightning is the most powerful electric vehicle in the game.

The Mercedes-Benz Silver Lightning has a starting rank of 1542 and a maximum rank of 1647. Being an electric car, the Silver Lightning accelerates rather slowly, even with the nitro activated. This allows even cars with low nitro efficiency like the Koenigsegg Agera R to knock down a Silver Lightning at the beginning of a race. Top speed, however, is very decent, but not the best.. Despite what the game shows as the handling, the Silver Lightning actually handles quite well when drifting. The nitro lasts somewhat long, which is a big help to this car, and is a better choice than Koenigsegg Agera R in time-limited events involving middle S Class cars, alongside Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse.

The Mercedes-Benz Silver Lightning costs 325,000 Credits to purchase and 417,500 Credits to max out. While it is the most powerful electric vehicle in the game, it isn't the most expensive, as the Mercedes-Benz Biome and Rimac Concept One are more expensive than the Silver Lightning, with the Biome costing 450,000 Credits to purchase and 1,276,425 Credits to max out, for a total of 1,726,425 Credits; the Concept One costs 650,000 Credits to purchase and 1,396,225 Credits to max out, for a total of 2,046,225 Credits.
