New British car company Eterniti Motors has released undisguised images of its first prototype model – Hemera, which will be shown at next week’s Frankfurt International Motor Show (IAA).

The company describes it as “..the world’s first Super-SUV, will bring new levels of luxury and performance to the SUV segment when production starts in 2012.” Hand-built in London, it will feature a limousine-like rear cabin, including twin electric reclining seats, iPads and a drinks chiller, giving customers the option of being chauffeured as well as driving.

However, its relatively compact dimensions, 4×4 ruggedness and dynamic performance mean that it is more practical than a limousine and offers considerable driver appeal, with over 620 bhp on tap and a top speed in excess of 180 mph.

We’ll have further details to share with you next Tuesday.
