2020 Montes Amagosta
On the last Geneva Auto Show we presented the Amagosta Concept, and here, a few months later, we have the production version.
Because the old design it was well received, instead change the whole design concept, we decided to improve it. So, at the front, the diamond-shaped grille and the stilized headlights and taillights are preserved, but featuring a new fresh design.
On the rear, we preserved the famous “expensive Italian coffee machine” rear end, consisting on two thin and horizontal taillights, and a raised tailgate.
On the technical side, we used a glue-bonded aluminium frame, with carbon fibre reinforcement, the same used on the previous version, but improved (and also used on the Excelsior). The torsional stiffness is increased by a 30%, while the weight remains the same.
The engine is the same 5.8L twin turbo WX58 block used on the previous-gen Amagosta, but with the new Montes SCHI system (used on the Excelsior), that improves the fuel economy and emissions about a 25%, but archieving 601 hp at 7200 RPM and 704 Nm at 4600 RPM (the 85% of torque is available from 1700 RPM), and that means that the car can reach 340km/h of top speed, and do the 0-100km/h on 4.5s. And all of this, only requiring 7L/100km of fuel (WTLP cycle).
If you prefer a V8, of course, you can choose the Amagosta with that engine, the PO50 5.1L twin turbo V8, with 500hp and 550Nm. The 0-100 is the same, 4.5s, and the top speed is 320km/h, while the fuel consumption is 6.3L/100km.
The Amagosta is available with two transmissions: a torque converter box with 9 gears, or a manual gearbox with 7 gears.
The prices starts from $104.000 for the V8 (auto gearbox), and $118.000 for the V12 (auto gearbox).
