2019 Arrowhead AVR GTE
Possible for Arrowhead motorsport to acquire title sponser to become Petronas-Arrowhead Motorsport competing in V8 Supercars, WEC, IMSA and The Blancpain series
The car is meant to replace the light and nimble Arrowhead Vyil, however the AVR is a whole 100mm wider and 430mm longer complimenting the wheelbase with an inrcease of 300mm. This helped to increase the stability of the car which ia essential in the GTE category. The GTE version however is more wider and come with an array of Aerodynamic features. Extra care was taken to ensure the rear tyre wake was used effectively by the diffuser
Same for the front tyres as fixtures allow the air to escape from within the front wheel arches in an orderly manner contrary to the competition. Also notice the front Canards, especially flow condtioner on top of the wheel arches.
The car uses the 5.0L V8 developed from the V8 supercars category, instead of the 3.0-4.0L Striaght-6 devloped for the AVR production spec. More details to be revealed during the launch of the production spec.
Talks of acquiring Petronas sponser is ongoing amidst introduction of the AVR GTE and future introduction of the LavL Skyerl GT3. The possibly new V8 Supercar regulations allowing Turbo4’s and V6’S has caused delays as pressure from Mercedes’s own, but now defunct V8 Supercar is slowing the deal down.

2019 Arrowhead AVR
The succesor to the Vyil; Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger (Cue Daft Punk)
Sports Car(S-Segment European Classification)
This is to replace the Vyil model but at first glance this might be confusing to notice. The AVR is lower than the Vyil, yet it is now a whole 100mm wider and 630mm longer(That’s 63cm) than the very nimble Vyil. The Longer Wheelbase was especially chosen as an advantage to compete in the LM GTE category in the WEC series(WEC regulation require the GTE cars to be similar in length(Apart from Overhangs) +/- 15mm). The Chassis is now Aluminium instead of Carbon fibre tub, but the body panels are now Carbon fibre instead. As a result the car has gained an overall of 100kg across the model range. This is why the car comes with a 3.0-3.5L Inline-6 cylinder engines, instead of the heavier and less torquier V6.
The car also uses a unique and upgraded version(Courtesy of Valeo Automotive) now involving a 150 - Volt Booster pack which involves 50kw of additional power from the combined starter and alternator unit in-between the engine and the transmission. Along with this an electrically assisted compressor is used to eliminate turbo lag as in the I6-GT. This decision to upgrade the system was made to ensure more top-end power which the Inline-6 engine lacked. Make no mistake though as the Inline-6’s for AVR is completely different from the versions available in other models, courtesy of a larger bore and smaller stroke. The platform employs a Double wishbone front and cleverly packaged Pushrods with Transversely mounted Springs at the rear without compromising boot space. The Variants are shown below.

2020 Arrowhead; Change in Direction (Post 50:))
Major Shake-up of Company production and Structure with more Focus on Luxury than outright mass-production, aligning with companies like Bentley, Porsche, Maserati instead of Mercedes and Lexus.
This has been decided after the Success of the Arrowhead AVR and LavXL but the disappointing sales of the smaller and more mass-produced LavL and LavM. A Sales analyses and public and customer review revealed that there is more interest in Arrowhead sports and high end luxury cars then the mass-produced counterparts. Even with the new introduction of the LavL to the market sales and interest are no higher than the LavXL and surprisingly the 911-competing AVR. Thus it is been decided that the board will reduce production volume and factory size with the new LavL orders being cancelled as it was realised it would be cheaper to just not sell them even though a lot of money was spent in the R&D. Major and new plants in India, Mexico, Brasil and South Africa have been returned or sold to other car manufacturers. The new focus will only have high end cars, SUV’s and predominately sports cars.
Models and Trims to be expected
Cars
- Focus on luxury cars but more Sportier (Like the Panamera or AMG GT)
SUV
- A Luxury SUV again more Sportier (Like Cayenne and Cayenne Coupe)
. . . SUV and Coupe
- A larger SUV with Focus on off-roading and comfort (Like a Range Rover)
. . . As an SUV option only
Super and GT
- AVR (Facelift coming soon) (Sports car - Supercar for higher end models)
. . . Coupe, Roadster
- A mid engined Super Car
- Arrowhead Shaila (Track focused Hyper car)
. . . Coupe
- More Speed focused Hyper Car(Mclaren Speed Tail)
- A long distance Grand Tourer
Racecars
- 2020 Arrowhead Shaila Proto one (2020 Le mans regulation)
- 2020 AVR GTE
More Models Maybe Planned.
Yeah so from now on these to be expected.

2020 Arrowhead TerMANN
SUV and Coupe
(Compete's against the Cayenne and the Cayenne Coupe)
The 2020 TerMANN is available first of the relase for the 2020 model line-up. The platform employs a Double wishbone front and 5 way Multi-link rear suspension and all of them come with variable AWD system like before. The new SUV is a massive change over the aggressive coupe like body used before. The 2020 models will employ the new LASER-tech blue headlight system with the TerMANN becoming the first to use it. It allows for individual modules to control where the light goes to provide a wide viewing area as well as distance while reducing its affect on oncoming traffic. Another First is the use of side view camera instead of a mirror.
The car will roll of from the factory by January and will be in dealerships by the end of that month. The specs and gallery can be see below. A separate post will be made for the engine variants
