Weber Sportcars unveiled a 250 mph, carbon fiber supercar that is shaped largely by aerodynamics. After nine months of computer-aided design, they were able to make a full size model of what the final shape might look like. Included is an active rear wing that changes in angle for both acceleration and braking.


Acceleration 0-100 km/h, 0-62 mp/h 2.5 sec.
Maximum G-Force 1.1g
Top Speed 400+ km/h, 249+ mp/h
The most important characteristics and our philosophy are:

Intelligent 4-wheel drive
Chassis from high-strength airplane aluminum
Body completely made of carbon
Sequential, semi-automated transmission
All vehicle parts are in-house design, weight and achievement optimized by means of calculations and FEM analyses .

Basic components:

Complete body from carbon (CFK)
The chassis consists of high-quality aluminum
sequential gearbox with semiautomatic and full automatic shift mode
High Performance 7.0l V8 supercharged mid mounted and intercooled engine with dry sump, 900hp and 1050Nm with different engine management modes (comfort mode with reduced power and fuel consumption – Sport mode with high power and aggressive acceleration and top speed)
High performance Carbon-Ceramic brakes with anti lock system and constant capability, also in cold run. Calipers with 12 pistons
Special Weber alloy wheels with own center lock
Active Traction Control System
Active Aero Control, adaptive hydraulik wing, also for breaking
Active four wheel motion control

Mulitfunctional steering wheel with shiftlights and shiftpaddles

Aerodynamics

The aerodynamic tuning is probably the most important thing from a super sportscar. Our technicians have spent a long time with the optimism. Over a period of nine months new models were designed again and again. The perfect result can be showed! Reaching the finale speed of over 400 km/h is guaranteed. Important in this case are those contact pressure in the front and in the rear, so that the vehicle remains stable at the street. The engine and transmission interpretation were determined due to these dates. We have a power reserve of 15%, in order to reach the final speed.

The adaptive wing is constructed for excellent acceleration and for best results by braking.

In slow motion is the rear spoiler retracted and will be extended during acceleration.. The position of the spoiler is variable and is affected by the car condition. The rear spoiler will be in a vertical position during the breaking process. The maximum breakpower will be 4’000 N which the car will reach additional.
