The creators of the Lightning GT electric-sports cars are planning three additional models, reports AuotCar. The Lightning GT is scheduled to go into production early next year with a starting price-tag of around £120,000 ($196,014 USD).

The 700 horsepower Lightning GT EV is capable of traveling 250 miles with only 10 minutes of charging. 0 to 60 mph comes in just 4 seconds with a top speed of 130 mph.

In an interview with AutoCar, Chairman of the Lightning Car Company Ian Sanderson said that: “We have deposits, and we’re pushing ahead with our plans. “It’s our intention that it is the first of a number of models. A limo-sized model is planned, as we think a high-end chauffer-driven car with electric power would work well for executives travelling around cities.”

Sanderson said that LCC is also looking at a smaller sports car and an SUV model.
