It seems that UK automaker Lightning Car Company has announced that, in addition to their recently announced Lightning GT, they will be launching 3 additional all-electric vehicles.

If you didn’t know, the Lightning GT is an all-electric vehicle with a 120,000 price tag, 0-60 mph sprint of 4 seconds and a range of 180 miles. It hasn’t hit the market yet but Lightning Car Company head honcho Ian Sanderson says that they have a smaller sportscar, SUV and a “high-end chauffer-driven car with electric power” in the works.

So yeah, none of us will be able to afford these, but thanks anyways Lightning Car Company.

While everyone is trying to curb down on cost, you can be sure that the demand for luxury vehicles or chauffer driven cars is still around. While many corporate executives are abandoning chauffeur-driven limousines, and executive sedan services because of a perception that they are “wasteful,” Anthony Berritto, owner of Salson Logistics has found the opposite to be true.

“During a typical week, I used to spend upwards of 20 hours in traffic, getting virtually nothing done,” explains Berritto, who now rides in the back of a mini stretch Lincoln Town Car that is barely discernable from a standard sedan from the outside, called a LTC 30 Mobile Office. The car was built to spec by Royale a Cabot Coach Builders Company in Haverhill, Massachusetts. “This allows me to buy back that valuable time.”

Berritto’s vehicle is called a Royale LTC 30 Mobile Office because it was “stretched” 30 inches, giving rear-seat occupants a tremendous amount of legroom/space. The vehicle is equipped with dozens of special amenities, including ergonomically designed desks, onboard computer, 20-inch LCD monitor, satellite television, reclining rear seats with massage, 110v inverter, six-inch extended rear doors, and advanced Touch Controls for adjusting everything from climate to the premium stereo system’s volume.
