Vanda Electric, a new Singapore-based company, has set its eyes on a lofty goal: developing an all-electric supercar.

Electric cars are not only going farther, but going faster. The Tesla Model X and Porsche Mission E will both reach 155 miles per hour. And lesser known automakers are also keeping an eye on speed — Croatian automaker Rimac is creating an all-electric concept car that hits 185 miles per hour.

But the Vanda Electric supercar, dubbed the Dendrobium, is aiming to top even the Rimac. Here's a closer look at what it can do:

The company claims the car will reach a top speed of just under 250 miles per hour!

A spokesperson for Dendrobium told Tech Insider that the speed, and all of the other specs mentioned in this article, were released during the initial planning of the car. The specifications are likely to change and the new ones will be released in the next few weeks.

But the new automaker didn't compromise on range either. It can drive 249 miles before needing a charge.

It can go from zero to 62 miles per hour in just 2.6 seconds.

There will be a limited production run for 10 customers.

When exactly that production run will occur, and how much the car will cost, has still not be released.

But you can see it for yourself at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show.

When it's complete, the Dendrobium will be Singapore's first hypercar, according to a press statement.

Vanda Electrics has teamed up with engineering firm Williams Advanced Engineering to build the car. The car's design was done by EPTA Design.
