Aehra is a new electric-car startup based in Milan, Italy.
It recently unveiled its first model, a stunning SUV brimming with unique features.

The ultra-premium ride will cost a pretty penny: between $160,000 and $180,000, the company says.

Its slim headlights and taillights give it a clean, futuristic look.

Aehra targets a driving range of at least 800 kilometers, or 498 miles.
