After changing the name of the F-Type R Coupe-based Thunder into LFT, Lister announced that the Lightning is up next. Henceforth known as the LFP, the crossover has been confirmed with 670 PS from a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 engine and more than 200 mph (320-plus km/h) at full potential.
Even though it’s more potent than the world’s fastest SUV (650 PS), the Jaguar F-Pace SVR-based tuning package plays second fiddle to the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT Trackhawk (717 PS). The plug-in hybrid Lamborghini Urus, meanwhile, will arrive next year with at least 680 PS.
As you can tell from the teaser image gallery, there are notable differences between the LFP and the bone-stock model. Bigger wheels wrapped in low-profile rubber, larger braking system of the carbon-ceramic type, aerodynamic enhancements, a lot has been changed in order to facilitate the 200-mph maximum velocity.
Pedal to the metal, the 2019 Lister LFP is much obliged to hit 60 mph in 3.3 seconds, exactly the same as the range-topping Jeep. An insane time for a sport utility vehicle of this size and weight, with seating for five people. Torque hasn’t been confirmed by the British automaker and tuning company. As standard, the F-Pace SVR is much obliged to offer 680 Nm (502 pound-feet).
99 examples of the breed will ever be produced, putting the LFP in a league of its own as far as exclusivity is concerned. Pricing for the newcomer is estimated at £140,000, which converts to $180,000 at current exchange rates. A hefty sticker for sure, but then again, don’t forget the F-Pace SVR starts at £74,835 before optional extras.
Lister is accepting pre-orders for the LFP, and based on the success of the LFT, these babies will sell out by the end of the year. Following the pumped-up utility vehicle, Lister will focus on the Storm II.
The spiritual successor of the original is expected to feature a Jaguar-sourced V12, packing more than 1,000 horsepower thanks to supercharging technology. As for pricing, well, expect to pony up in the ballpark of £2 million.
