APS Sportec press release :
Having stunned the motoring press and Salon Privé show goers last
year with the UK premier of the SPR1, SPORTEC is set to debut a new,
faster, lighter and improved version of the Swiss built supercar at this
year’s event – the SPR1R.
Conceived, designed and constructed in Switzerland by SPORTEC’s
technical team, the new version of the SPR1 offers unrivalled supercar
performance and exclusivity, carrying over the 858PS bi-turbo,
3.6-litre, 24-valve, flat six T80M engine and permanent four wheel drive
of the previous version.
Likewise the SPORTEC SPR1R’s specification includes the titanium
connecting rods, a flat carbon fibre under floor, active suspension and
F1 style ceramic brake discs of other SPR1 models, while the use of
composite (carbon / Kevlar) body panels, forged alloy wheels, an
integrated safety cage and ceramic brake discs allows the SPR1 to be
lighter, safer and more dynamic than other cars in its class.
For 2010, the SPR1R boasts a number of detail improvements. Firstly,
by concentrating on weight reduction across a variety of key components,
SPORTEC’s technicians have managed to reduce the weight of the SPR1R by
50 kilograms, to a total of 1295 kilos.
This development makes the SPR1R one of the lightest supercars on the
market (a Bugatti Veyron weighs 1990 kilos for comparison) and enhances
the SPR1R’s power to weight ratio to a staggering 655 bhp per ton.
In addition, SPORTEC has added a driver adjustable traction control
system, managed via a touch screen mounted in the centre console. This
unit also doubles as a vehicle data logger and lap timer, which also
allows owners to monitor key engine data in real time.
These combined improvements have yielded considerable performance
benefits. While the 0-62mph (100kmh) time is unchanged at 3.0 seconds,
the 300 kmh (186mph) increment arrives 0.9 seconds quicker than
previously, highlighting the effectiveness of the changes. The quoted
top speed of more than 236mph remains unaltered
Available in a choice of colours, the SPR1R boasts a number of
exclusive SPORTEC styling and interior touches, including lightweight 20
inch forged alloy wheels, a carbon fibre rear wing and leather /
alcantara interior.
Subtle, exclusive yet very useable and designed to deliver unrivalled
performance, the 2010 SPR1R is designed to stay ahead of the supercar
competition.
APS of Brackley is the UK concession for SPORTEC, and APS / SPORTEC
is delighted that the 2010 SPR1R will be making its British debut at the
prestigious Salon Privé show at London’s Hurlingham club, between 21st-23rd
July.
