AL Autos Booth (Press Day 1)
Welcome to the AL Autos Booth here at the 2018 New York International Auto Show! For the past few months, AL Autos has been working on improving our current models as well as developing some fun new models for ya’ll to enjoy. As of now, we have with us three of our models with us, each one designed to the best of our abilities, as well as another model designed in partnership with the Hennessy Motor Company (HMC): the AL Actio, the AL Adventum, the AL Citatus, and the special reveal which will come on the second day of the NYIAS press days. Let us get this show on the road, shall we?
AL Actio RGR
When you’ve gotta go fast, you gotta go fast.
The Body
Our fastest super car as of now, the Actio has been face-lifted for the new model year in order to provide for a more aggressive look that its predecessor: Our all new triangle headlamps, and black accented grille and vent fixtures. These give the Actio a flowing yet aggressive look unlike any other supercar we’ve produced. On the side, we’ve also included a side vent to provide some extra cooling for the new engine we’ve placed in the body. The aluminum body of the Actio, with everything on it, weighs in at 3548.4 lbs (1609.5 kgs).
The Performance
Speaking of the engine, the Actio has an all-new 5.7 L Twin Turbo Flatplane V8 producing 914 HP and 665 ft-lb of torque. This is delivered to the rear wheels via a Longitudinal RWD system. Also found in the Carbon Fiber Monocoque Chassis: A 7 Speed Double Clutch Sequential Gearbox, an Electric Limited Slip Differential, AL Sport Compound Tires, 4 Piston/6 Piston Carbon Ceramic Brakes, and an Active Sport Tuned Pushrod Suspension System. This allows for the Actio to go from 0-62 MPH (0-100 KPH) in 2.4 seconds, achieve a top speed of 236.6 MPH (380.8 KPH), and clock our fastest time on for our lineup, a 1:10.5, on the Top Gear Test Track.
Some Added Features
AL Autos has included some nifty additions to the Actio to allow for a more personalized driving experience: Our ALDrivingProfile (3 Set Driving Modes: Track, Road Sport, and Road Comfort) which adjust suspension height, active aero positions, steering sensitivity, quickens the gear shifts, and allows for more sensitive throttle and brake application; A digital gauge cluster accompanied with a multimedia screen which shows both gps and media (AM/FM, SAT, MP3, and Bluetooth) screens and also adapts to the driving mode selected and is controlled either by steering wheel mounted buttons or a touch pad found in the center console; and a heads up display which shows your tachometer, your speedometer, your gps directions, and many other features which can be customized to suit the driver.

AL Citatus RGS
A premium mid-engine sports car ready to excite.
The Body
The Citatus is sporting the same body shape as our fastest vehicle, the Actio, but has scaled down to make it a compact sports car. The fixtures added are a step away from the usual here at AL Autos as we wanted something that stood out from the rest of our lineup: The sleek happy front end with its portion of grilles and vents, a new headlight/DRL teardrop headlamps, and a simplified yet aggressive looking side vents and rear end. The Citatus also weighs in at 2602.6 lbs (1180.5 kgs) thanks to lightweight aluminum body construction and a carbon fiber monocoque chassis. Just from the looks alone, one could tell that this car is ready to excite.
The Engine
The heart of this passionate little vehicle is a mid-transverse 1.7 L Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine producing 258 HP and 187 ft-lb of torque. This is sent to the rear wheels through a transverse RWD system. Also found underneath the Citatus: a Manual 6 Speed Transmission, electric limited slip differential, ALSportCompound tires (225 F, 255 R), alloy rims, solid disc brakes (4-piston front, 6-piston rear), and sport tuned pushrod front and rear suspension.
