Mazzanti Evantra V8 is the World's Newest Supercar
Mazzanti Automobili has revealed its Evantra V8 production model at the 2013 Top Marques Monaco show.
The Italian automaker plans on building just five units a year, all hand-made in Italy. A two-seater coupe, the Evantra V8 can be ordered in either carbon fiber composite materials or with a hand-crafted, aluminum body personalized by the client. Powering the Evantra is a 7.0-liter V8 Corvete engine with 701 hp and 625 lb-ft of torque sourced from Chevrolet.
Transmission options include a six-speed manual or a sequential gearbox with the Evantra accelerating to 62 mph in 3.2 seconds while having a top speed of 217 mph. Standard on the vehicle are 20-inch OZ wheels backed by Brembo brakes with six-piston calipers in the front and four-piston calipers in the rear.
On the inside, the Evantra’s interior will be custom-built based on the buyer’s specifications.
No pricing was announced at the vehicle’s debut.
