Ford unveiled a fully electric 900-horsepower Mustang at a car show in Las Vegas Wednesday. It's not for sale, but the customized Mustang is intended to gauge interest in a high-performance electric car, Ford said.

Later this month Ford will unveil a"Mustang inspired" electric SUV that customers will be able to buy. The SUV, however, will likely be far less powerful than this show car, which Ford is calling the Mustang Lithium. Ford didn't provide any exact performance figures for the Mustang Lithium, but described the car's acceleration as"stunning."The Ford Mustang Lithium has two clear panels in the hood to allow a view of the parts underneath.

The driver can select from four driving modes, including Sport, Track and Beast. The fourth is a Valet mode for when you have to hand someone else the key.

Electric car batteries and motors tend to heat up under hard use, such as racing. The Ford Mustang Lithium has a six-speed manual transmission, a very unusual feature in an electric car.
