2019 Evgenis Nemean ES Goodwood Edition
Unteased and unexpected. Evgenis never annouced they would be coming to Goodwood. Then a Typhon ES rocked up on the start line to show off its capabilities. But something mysterious was lurking under a cover behind it…
Evgenis is proud to announce the limited edition Evgenis Nemean ES Goodwood Edition. Only 500 units will ever be made for the European market only, 250 with six-speed manuals and 250 with seven-speed dual-clutch automatics, all of which only available in Goodwood Green Metallic. This is proof that small cars can also be truly almighty!
The new Nemean ES Goodwood Edition is the essence of a thrilling hot hatchback. Now equipped with an upgraded 2.0-litre turbocharged engine capable of 275 bhp and 285 Nm of torque, the Goodwood Edition fires from 0-100 kph (0-62 mph) in 5.8 seconds with a six-speed manual or 5.5 seconds with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic, while both models are capable of in excess of 250 kph (155 mph). Thanks to upgraded aerodynamics and stickier tyres, the Nemean is capable of pulling up to 1.1g in cornering, while potent brakes match the pulling power and the stopping power. All of this allows for an astonishing 1:01, fastest than any other hot hatchback to ever tackle the Goodwood hill climb.
With this being a more pure hatchback, the decision was made to ditch a lot of the creature comforts of this vehicle and replace certain features in favour of a more pure driving experience, leaving behind our touch-screen infotainment system, switching our comfort seats for lightweight buckets, removing soundproofing, adding a manual handbrake and removing the electronic one, allowing TCS and ESP to be completely disabled. We even ditched our driving modes for a simple, one car setup that means you will always be in the optimum mode for performance.
