2019 Enactor Estate Roamer (Series 4)

Overview

The Estate Roamer has been an icon among the luxury SUVs for two decades and to reaffirm its position on the top of the tree, Enactor is proud to present the Series 4 Estate Roamer. Building upon the foundations of the previous models, the Estate Roamer seeks to deliver the ultimate in luxury and off-road capability, with no compromises.

Styling

The clean and elegant design has been a long standing Estate Roamer tradition, with smooth lines, which still are imposing and distinctive enough to separate it from lesser models.
For the 2019 model, full LED headlights and tail lights are standard on all models, for a distinctive visual and lighting signature.

Engineering

Building upon the solid basis of the previous models and with access to the vast R&D resources of the parent companies, the Estate Roamer has cutting edge technology designed to augment safety, driver comfort and ease to drive.

All the latest safety technology is available on the model, with Enactor’s AutoCruise allowing the car to follow the cars in front, steer within the lane and come to a complete stop, without any input from the driver, provided they keep the eyes on the road and the hands on the wheel. This means the Estate Roamer is capable of level 2 autonomous driving, perfect to take the strain away from long motorway journeys.

Meanwhile, all the off-road tech hasn’t been forgotten, with the car featuring self-levelling air suspension, with adaptive dampers and off-road biased reactive roll bars, which detect long vertical movement and need for wheel articulation and soften up accordingly, without compromising off-road capability or on-road driving behaviour.

In order to improve fuel economy and improve drivability, the car’s body is fully made of aluminium, meanwhile the steel monocoque has been worked upon, to improve structural rigidity and reduce weight.

Powertrain

The Series 4 Estate Roamer is available from launch with 2 engines in 3 states of tune. Erin’s 3.5 Twin-Turbo V6, in 300 hp guise, provides the entry-level of the range. Meanwhile, Bonham’s 3.0 Turbocharged Straight Six is presented in 2 states of tune, 380 and 500 hp.

All engines are mated exclusively to an 8 speed automatic gearbox with power being delivered to all four wheels. Power is split 50/50 as standard, but if the computer detects slip, power can be sent 100% to either axle and up to 75% to an individual wheel.

Interior

In keeping with the Estate Roamer tradition for luxury, this latest car offers a wide variety of luxury items. All 5 individual seats are covered in fine nappa leather, with 12-way electric adjustments for the front seat passengers and 4-way individual adjustments for each of the three seats in the rear. The car is equipped with two 13" displays, one to control the infotainment, the other showcasing the fully digital dials. Meanwhile, rear seat passengers also get individual touchscreens, which can use the in-car internet hotspot to access websites like Youtube and Netflix on the go.

The sound system uses a 19-speaker, 1550W Harman-Kardon surround sound system, engineered exclusively for use in the Estate Roamer, with active noise cancellation.

Enactor’s Adventure Key is also present. It consists of a waterproof wristband, that can be used to lock and unlock the car, while leaving the standard key safe and dry inside the car. Perfect for any outdoor excursion where taking a delicate and cumbersome key might prove risky.

Detailed stats and pricing coming on the Enactor thread very soon.

Pre-orders are available, with first deliveries in late summer, with production starting at the Enactor plant in Curdworth in May.

Zenshi in the 2018 New York International Auto Show - Day 1

For the first press day in New York, Zenshi showcased two performance beasts, one of which wasn’t to be expected from a company like them.

On the stage; Zenshi made use of the screen to display moving pictures to show two halves; first being a video of an empty Route 66 in the sunset, and to follow the theme of what they have been doing in Japan recently, which is to play songs previously used in their car advertisements back in the day; played a sample of Toshiki Kadomatsu’s 52nd Street.

And as the animation went, the light focused on a performance… Pickup.

2019 Zenshi TDF Furue ZMD Track

From there was ZMD’s track-tuned TDF Furue. This generation marks the first time the “TDF” name is used in the American market.

This particular TDF Furue sat considerably low for a pickup truck, and holding them up are 20-inch RAYS wheels on Yokohama ADVAN tires. Fat ZMD quad-tip exhausts adorn the colour-coded rear bumper in a way to show that it means business.

Overall, the pickup received a rather aggressive styling treatment, and if that doesn’t scream performance, perhaps the overall stats will. Under the hood lays a Twin-Turbocharged 5.6L V8 known as the SY56-GDA2T, which was used in the well-known high performance version of the GT, the GTZ 5.6R. Coming standard with a 6-Speed Manual, pumping out 600 HP only to the rear wheels, and weighing below 2,000 kg, the Furue ZMD Track makes for one hell of a street performance truck.

The spotlight dims on the Furue, and focuses on a rather low-looking silhouette.

On the right side of the screen, played a black-and-white video of the roads of Suzuka Circuit, initially playing no music, just the sounds of a roaring V8 engine. Eventually, the music comes to, and playing is another song from Kadomatsu, Rush Hour.

The V8 sounds get louder until it all stops for a brief second, displaying a familiar logo:

after that, the light fully focuses on the silhouette and the veil drops.

2019 Zenshi GTZ 500R

In a recognizable yellow colour, there laid the new GTZ. ZMD decided to not put in extreme styling towards the front, giving a bit of a more, premium, side to the car, all the while aiding it’s aerodynamics.

Darkened lights help give off a very menacing feel to the car, an aesthetic the GTZ lives by. Overall, the next-generation GTZ has seen a slew of improvements, both inside and out.

Mentioned already was the bodywork of the GTZ. Everything, from the bumps to the vents to the diffuser, aid in cornering performance and general efficiency. With the aid of it’s dogleg 7-Speed Manual, the roaring beast presents considerably impressive gas mileage figures for a car like this; 28 MPG Highway is one thing to take note of.

Dynamic exhaust control, which was introduced with the Axia Newman R last year, is present in the 2019 GTZ, which allows the driver to drive a little bit more quietly when it comes to a time when noise isn’t the thing to have.

Boasting 20-inch WedsSport wheels in a deep grey finish, and inside them, high-performance Akebono vented disc brakes are what serves as the “footwork” of the sports car. with 285 wide rear tires and 265 fronts, it adds to the already grippy dynamics of the GTZ.

Compared to the previous generation, the GTZ is a bit lighter, rating at 1780 kg (opposed to the 5.6R’s 1856 kg) makes for a quicker, zippier car.

Aiding the weight of the new GTZ is a brand-new developed V8 engine. Referenced in the new name of the GTZ, is the 5.0L Twin Turbocharged 90-degree V8 co-developed by ZMD, named the SZ50-GDA2T. While smaller than the outgoing 5.6L SY56, is lighter, less powerful, but more efficient. While losing 18 HP from the previous generation, now cranking out 622 HP, still can go really fast, actually faster than the outgoing model, pumping out power to the rear wheels to hit a quick top speed of 210 MPH.

Expect more of these two beasts when they hit the showroom floors soon.

Scagliati At NYIAS 2018.

Introducing the 2019 Scagliati Zoccarato Scoperta. Continuing A Proud Name.

Music for the reveal

2019 Scagliati Zoccarato Scoperta in Rosso Cinabro

Scagliati Motori is proud to present to you the 2019 Zoccarato Scoperta luxury roadster. The Zoccarato draws on seven decades of open-air motoring tradition from Scagliati, with the car’s bold styling and clean lines drawing a direct parallel to our very first car, the 245 Serenissima of 1947. The Zoccarato is a very special car for our company from a historical perspective, as it carries the name of the Zoccarato family, who have been associated with our company for five generations now. Gianluigi Zoccarato - part stylist, part engineer, part master craftsman - who, with our founder Amadeo Scagliati, worked tirelessly to make their dreams of a luxurious touring roadster come true in 1947, and set forth in motion the legend that continues to this very day with the car before you.

2019 Scagliati Zoccarato Scoperta, in Zaffiro

The Zoccarato Scoperta takes our company’s proven SCALE Architecture and meshes it with a flowing aluminium body, making for a strong, lightweight and resilient chassis for optimum handling, acceleration and fuel efficiency. Power for the Zoccarato Scoperta comes from a turbocharged 2.9 litre inline-6 that is the newest addition to the Amadeo modular engine family, and produces 451 horsepower and 445 newton-metres of torque in the current configuration. Combined with a seven-speed double-clutch gearbox and active aerodynamics front and rear, the Zoccarato Scoperta returns 7.3 litres per 100 kilometres in the Automation Combined Cycle Fuel Economy standard.

Inside the Zoccarato Scoperta, you will find the same luxury that any of our valued customers would expect from a Scagliati, with a handcrafted interior of the highest quality for pilot and passenger, made from the very finest materials we can source from our purchasers the world over. The cockpit has has its focus oriented toward the pilot, with important controls moved to be within easy reach for them as they drive the Zoccarato Scoperta. Eighteen-way, power-adjustable seats cosset both pilot and passenger alike, with seat heating and cooling as standard, along with integrated air vents in the headrest to allow for a much more comfortable open-air driving exprience. The folding cloth roof does not impede in the trunk space of the car, and folds completely within 13 seconds, and can operate at speeds up to 40 kilometres per hour.

The Zoccarato Scoperta goes on sale later this year, with prices starting at $141,600, and represents the first of a much larger family of variants, with more to come in the future. Please visit our website, or your Scagliati Atelier for more information.

2019 Scagliati Cinquetorri T - A Step Beyond The Ordinary.

2019 Scagliati Cinquetorri T, in Giallo D’Oro

Scagliati is proud to reveal to you the next step in the evolution of our luxury super SUV, the high-performance Cinquetorri T. With its distinctive front and rear treatment, the Cinquetorri T cuts an imposing figure on the road, and with 750 horsepower available from the turbocharged, 5-litre V12, it has the power to back up the image as well. With this, the Cinquetorri T is one of the fastest SUVs on the planet, with a 0-100 time of 3.5 seconds, and an electronically-limited top speed of 330 kilometres per hour.

Revised suspension tuning and a reengineered CAST system provides better body control and handling, with no sacrifice to ride quality whatsoever over the base model Cinquetorri. A more aggressive aero package and dynamic, 22-inch wheels adds to the aggressive stance of the vehicle, yet do nothing to hamper the excellent off-road capabilities of the Cinquetorri T.

NYIAS MONTES SHOWROOM

---

Welcome to the Montes showroom!

Today, we are proud to present the new F-segment model of the brand, the T90, as well the definitive Urban 2018 TCR.

---

2018 Montes T90

---

But before introduce the model, we will answer questions, which have arisen in motor magazines, and among fans:

Questions and answers

But first, we will answer the questions that have arisen in specialized media about the nomenclature, as well as resolve the rumors surrounding the Excelsior.

On montes, we decided to change the nomenclature for the sedans between the D and F segment.

The T it means tourer, already indicating the clear approach to rolling comfort, but without forgetting the typical dynamic behavior expected by a customer of the brand.

And the numbers, indicates the segment of the car. They go three by three. T30 it would be a D-segment sedan, T60, E-segment sedan, and T90, F-segment sedan. At the moment, we have no planned sedan below segment D.

And about the Excelsior, there will be no change in the denomination. It is a G segment car, and also, a historical model name, so we have not made any changes.

And once the questions are answered, we go with the presentation of the model.

Technology

To leave a more orderly, sober and clean cabin, together with Sharp’s collaboration, we have developed a transparent central screen, which the driver can hide at the touch of a button. The screen is made of a plastic material in its core, combined with the use of an OLED panel, and protected with a glass projection.

For the controls on the steering wheel, we decided to replace the traditional pushbuttons, by capacitive sensors, with an OLED screen behind them, which shows the function. Why? Because by pressing one of the buttons, we can go from controlling the audio system, to the air conditioning system, and therefore, the volume up or down button would switch to adjusting the temperature. So. The buttons are the same, but pressing the Mode one, It changes from AC to sound, and vice versa.

We wanted to introduce the greatest number of controls on the steering wheel, so that the driver does not take his hands off the steering wheel, but without accumulating many buttons or be confussing.

In the autonomous driving section, the T90 incorporates the latest technology available in the market. Like LiDAR radars, for example, as well as an AI, developed by NVIDIA, that predicts what can happen on the road, or around it, to anticipate possible dangers.

The autonomous driving system is level 3.

Comfort

In Montes, we have been around 4 years, to develop a car as comfortable as possible, while dynamic.

To do this, we designed a hydropneumatic suspension, piloted, and controlled by RADAR, which, as we have said previously, reads the road, and adapts to the contour of it.

The feeling is like going on a cloud.

As we know that 65% of customers will be driven by a driver, we have designed a car with a wheelbase of 3.10m, to provide a large space for the legs, as well as to adjust the two individual seats. Two seats, with massage function, air-conditioned, and with automatic body adjustment.

Design

The body lines are soft, with a marked waist line, covered in chrome.

The handles, are retractable, and leave once the car opens.

They provide a clean lateral line, and an improvement in the drag coefficient.

Inside, leather presides most of the interior, along with wood, glass, marble and metal for the moldings and buttons.

The customer can choose between two types of leather: aniline and semi-aniline.

For the Asian market, you can order the interior, with seats covered in wool, instead of leather.

Engines

The car is available with three engine options: a 3.0 inline 6 with 311hp, a 5.0 v8 with 490hp, and a 5.8 V12, with 560hp. All engines, comes with turbocharger, direct injection, Montes SCHI technology, and a 48v mild hybrid system, for the V12.

Prices*

T90 3.0: 80.250€.

T90 5.0: 91.406€

T90 5.8: 106.646€

The sL600x introduces Sachiuri’s first SUV, delivering supremely crafted and expressly modern design for those who seek a fresh, distinctive and dynamic take on a luxury lifestyle. For the first time, Sachiuri’s distinctive supreme luxury and critically acclaimed style come together in a sports utility vehicle. Its name is the Sachiuri sL600x and it aims to rewrite the rules in the full-sized premium SUV segment.

---

---

The unmistakable signature grille highlights and evolves Sachiuri’s unmistakable Evoco design language seen on the sL1000 and sL200 sedans. The design with a flowing roofline evoking the silhouette of a sports coupe. The Composite Light design comprising LED Daytime Running Lights positioned on top of the LED headlights offer a glamorous and sleek design flowing organically from the front to the rear of the vehicle capturing the essence of the Evoco design language. The design rides on company’s well-established front and all-wheel drive global architecture (ML.I).

---

---

The sL600x silhouette is both powerful and refined, yet muscular appearance with a generous wheelbase minimized overhangs. It clearly makes a statement as the flagship of the companies new SUV lineup. In addition striking exterior and extremely comfortable ride with excellent driving dynamics both on the road as well as over rough terrain, the Sachiuri sL600x spoils its passengers with an interior which comes up to the first class standards of our luxurious saloons. The elegant interior decoration is full of vigour with high-quality materials and textures from around the world meet to provides world-class ergonomics and occupant comfort and luxury. Great attention has been paid to details and with up to seven passengers are optionally available and five standards, passengers are able to enjoy the outstanding seating. Boosted by the new panoramic sunroof offering breathtaking vistas an generous lighting into the cabin. It’s strikingly bold exterior highlight the companies design ethos to focus on the creating a vehicle that is both luxurious yet unique and bold.

---

---

At its market introduction, the all-new Sachiuri sL600x will start out with Sachirui’s X-TRAC All-Wheel-Drive (AWD) system and two engine options in most markets, an extensively re-engineered 3.2 naturally aspirated V6 engine, 3.2 V6 ActivBoost engine. All engines offer supreme refinement, ample performance and high efficiency.

to the powertrain, the sL600x comes with has an extensive standard off-road package for going on tours off the beaten track. Sachiuri’s X-TRAC AWD system was developed as a multi-mode system, providing an electronic, variable-torque-split clutch with active torque control between the front and rear axles. and a power split of up to 50/50 between the front and rear wheels with an optional mechanically self-locking limited slip differential that transfers more torque to the wheels with most grip, to optimise traction in any driving conditions. This X-TRAC AWD system includes driver-selectable modes for all weather conditions.

---

---

As with the recently introduced sL1000, the new SUV will offer Sachiuri’s new highly advanced Dynamic Trac-Management system that provides automatic driver and traffic control enabling Level 3 autonomous driving. The car takes over the task of driving in certain situations. Unlike at Level 2, the driver no longer needs to monitor it permanently.

They must merely be capable of taking back responsibility whenever the system prompts them to, with the system active, the driver can relax. They can take their hands off the steering wheel permanently and, depending on national laws, focus on a different activity that is supported by the car, such as watch a TV program on the 12-inch SACHIURI iX infotainment display in the centre console.

During highly automated travel a small camera in the driving area detects if the driver tires or falls sleep. If that happens, a multi-stage warning is given. As soon as the speed rises above 60 km/h (37.3 mph) or the line of vehicles breaks up, the traffic jam pilot informs the driver that they need to take charge of driving once again. If they ignore this prompt and the subsequent warnings, the new sL600x is braked to a standstill.

Detailed information will soon be available on the Sachiuri webpage.

Special Announcement from the Founder of AL Autos

“After a lot of time thinking about what kind of auto maker we’re going to be, AL Autos will finally be finalizing our lineup of cars after all this time of releasing new models and redesigning old ones. Expect a list of what our finalized lineup is will be like on our official website (forum page). In addition, after overcoming my stubbornness, I will be finally moving our designing to the newest platform, UE4, to bring AL Autos up to date.”

That’s one of the most radical rear ends I’ve seen on an SUV in a while. Nice job!

At first, it seems that the big flagship SUV from Sachiuri has too many sets of taillights for its own good. And yet somehow, against all odds, it actually works very well indeed.

Press Days

Welcome back to S.A.M.'s coverage of the NYIAS. It’s been a busy two days running about the convention centre (and bumping into the MN crew on more than one occasion) trying to keep up with the slew of new car releases, many of which are luxury SUVs; quite the contrast to the luxury limousine focus of Geneva. Anyhow, on with the coverage…

Evgenis’s new premium compact, the Valkyrie, is a clean looking and competent little car. Tasteful styling - not quite as “bold” in my mind as their press release would suggest - and a good range of engines give it good credentials, with the 1.5l Turbo Petrol being my pick on paper at least. There’s also a ton of high-end driver assists, even including self-leveling suspension on the estate versions. I look forward to a roadtest at some point on its home turf when I’m back in the UK hint hint
They then showed us what they wanted us to be hot and bothered about: why of course, it’s a hot hatch variant of the Valkyerie! 325 hp, 7 speed DCT and AWD puts it right up against the top-tier of hot hatches such as the Erin Merna X-AllDrive, Baltazar Quasar RS325 and Maesima Prova ST-R. It’s the usual hot hatch affair, with lighter this and sportier that, though for me, the styling doesn’t feel aggressive enough.

Leviathan’s new halo car, the Maladus, is a 829 hp V12 super coupe they’re claiming you could daily. 20.9 mpg is decent for modern-day performance cars, though one wonders how easy it’ll be to daily such a thing when the service costs and likely to be rather high. Still, it’s refreshing to a see a non-MR super car, using the same V8 as in the Scylla GT I drove at Geneva (only a heck of a lot more powerful). The styling doesn’t have me convinced though; it’s certainly well sculpted, but that smiley front grille doesn’t look worth the $100k+ pricetag. A solid ultra-high performance coupe underneath, but lacking on the visuals.

KHT unexpectedly released a Vision GT concept!. Based on the Augusta, it’s set to appear in Gran Turismo Sport as part of the March update, keeping much of the same styling and proportions as the production version, save for some extra vents and a modified powertrain.
You can read my thoughts on the road-going Augusta here as part of last year’s S.A.M. Sports Car Shootout.

Iurlaro really didn’t need to introduce the Zetian. The lack of pomp-and-circumstance reflects that imposing yet un-shouty styling; imposing yet not overbearing. And with 8 litres of Italian V12 under the bonnet, it’s sure to be quite the drive too. If its cheaper sister car, the Zanzibar, is the family-friendly convoy car of Justin Trudeau, this is more suitable for a stereotypical middle-eastern dictator. A properly stunning machine.

Enactor’s Series 4 Estate Roamer also had the covers removed today. The 4th generation of the luxury SUV is quite…(See More)

Rennen’s chief “you don’t like me but you know I’m better than you”-mobile, the Angeles, got a face lift!. The graceful lines have been tightened up here and there, and it has a new chin too. Updated interior equipment and some new options are the main headline here - the usual boring facelift news - but there’s no denying its keeping up appearances.

Zenshi’s in-house tuning company ZMD revealed their latest works with the TDF Furue ZMD Track and GTZ 500R. Quite a mouthful of a name on the former, but the TDF Furue’s had several chillis shoved up its Jaxy, and there’s no denying that it’d give any US sports pickup a run for its money in the looks department from the rear especially. The GTZ is the expected ZMD-tuned version of the GT, sporty classy-yet-aggresive styling modifications and 622 hp under the bonnet. Sounds like enough in my books, and thank the lord, it’s got a manual gearbox to deliver the power! It should put it in strong contention against the current crop of high-end sports machines.

RCM’s Suburbia crossover is getting a fresh face for 2019. And heck, just look at that face - it’s got massive cheeks now and gentle smile! The rear is the best angle for sure. An electric version is promised for later in the year.

Scagliatti presented two new models, the Zoccarato Scoperta and the Cinquetorri T. The former continues their long history of convertible sports coupes, though its styling doesn’t capture me as much as some of their other current models too; the back looks too tall and the front design lines clash. Inline 6 power, however, is a big plus, especially on a $141k car where most rivals opt for V12s or V8s. Unsurprisingly, it’s all about the driving rather than record-breaking numbers. A cruise along the coast around Genoa ought to do this car justice.
As for the Cinquetorri T, well, their pertinently vulgar SUV is now even more vulgar with wheels larger than most children and exhausts big enough to be fitted on an industrial generator. It’s beautifully smooth lines have been maintained, though underneath, it packs a bi-turbo V12 and 750 hp. A perfect rival to its new Italian cousin from Iurlaro. Its a car born to have money blown on it by rich people with too much disposable income for their own good, but heck, that’s the point right?

Japanese marque TSR revealed the new and positively American-looking Raider SUV. Weirdly enough, no journalist seemed to be able to cop a shout of the rear, but we were able to marvel at those gargantuan headlights. Decent pricing puts it bang on the mark for mid-range between everyday family offerings and high-end luxury machines in its class, and the engine range looks decent too. I’ve grown oddly fond of it while at the show, which is saying something for me an SUVs…

Montes’s new T90 luxury limousine is a smart if uninteresting ultra-luxury vehicle. A solid range of suitably high end engines, including a hybrid option for the 5.8l V12 trim, will certainly keep buyers covered in terms of performance. Oddly enough, it even has hydropneumatic suspension, certainly giving it some unique character. It should make it incredibly smooth on the road, so long as the setup has been done well. I just wish it was a little more daring with the styling, like the recently released Sachiuri sL1000.

And speaking of Sachiuri, they too kept the SUV train going with the sL600x. And holy god does it have presence. It is at once both hideous and outstandingly well detailed. It straddles the line of vulgarity with exceptional class, and the results are incredible. What a looker it is. The usual range of Anikatian technological luxury is on the inside - including a huge 12" touch display - and it comes packed with a 3.2l V6 as standard, though there seems to be promise of more engines in the near future. If there was any remaining doubt about how serious Maesima are when it comes to establishing Sachiuri as one of the top luxury brands in the world, it surely has dissipated now.

Shromet’s new Appalachian is here at last. The Trump jokes haven’t followed it, but it’s brought a nice, low-cost balance to the very high price feel of most cars at this year’s show. The usual off-roading/“life is an adventure” marketing bollocks is present however, though it doesn’t get in the way of seeing the capabilities of these good looking crossover. An 8 speed auto and a 3 cylinder 1.5l engine are both options, meaning it should attract those looking for an easy-to-live-with car and one that won’t hurt when it comes to taxing it.

And thus draws to an end another New York International Auto Show. Some more announcments are expected to still come, but for now, I’m off into Manhattan for one-too-many Long Island Iced Teas. Cheerio!

HMC (2nd Press Day)

Welcome back to to the HMC Showcase booth everyone! We hope you are all enjoying the second day of the NYIAS press days! We have partnered with AL Autos to bring you a special vehicle to our lineup. Let’s get right into it!

Hennessy Motor Company/AL Autos Lacesso LMGTR

The Body

HMC took the lead on the design w/ some AL Autos input. The front end was designed to evoke aggressiveness with some fine details: The Carbon Fiber trimmed bar in the mouth grille, the Vent/DRL/Xenon headlamp combo, and the sleek elegant vents. Front the side we have carbon fiber trimmed side vents, black accent door handles, and our 5 spoke alloy rims. From the rear end, HMC and AL Autos have put together a super aggressive rear end: Tail light/signal lamp combo, aggressive exhaust system, and many other fixtures to make the rear end pop. The Aluminum Body weighs in at 3643.3 lbs (1652.6 kgs).

The Performance

AL Autos took the lead on the engine w/ some HMC input. The heart of the Lacesso is a 4.5 L Twin Turbo V8 producing 674 HP and 532 lb-ft of torque sent to the rear wheels through a Longitudinal RWD system. AL Autos and HMC equally collaborated on the other underpinnings connected to the Carbon Fiber Monocoque Chassis: a 6 Speed Manual Transmission, ALHMC Sports Compound Tires, (brakes), and Pushrod (F)/Double Wishbone (R) suspension system tuned for sport. This allows for the Lacesso to go from 0-62 MPH (0-100 KPH) in 2.9 seconds, 217.9 MPH (350.7 KPH), and clock a 1:14.0 on the Top Gear Test Track.

Some Other Features

AL Autos added some features to the Lacesso to spruce up your driving experience: AL Autos Driving Profile with three selectable modes (Road, Road Sport, and Track Sport) and a customizable profile so the driver can customize how the car drives to suit (Active Aero angles, suspension height, throttle/brake sensitivity, and steering sensitivity); Active Sports Exhaust which allows the driver to tune the exhaust note down or crank it up to hear that engine roar; a digital dashboard with customizable gauges and colors; AM/FM/MP3 capability, and a heads up display
