British sportscar manufacturer Caterham has unveiled the brand new AeroSeven Concept in Singapore, ahead of the SingTel Singapore Formula One Grand Prix.
Based on the company’s Seven CSR platform and developed with the help of the Caterham F1 team, the AeroSeven Concept previews a production sportscar that will go into production in autumn 2014.
The vehicle will be the first Caterham to feature traction control and will be powered by a 2.0-liter Ford Duratec-based engine that delivers 240 HP, which enables the concept car to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in under four seconds. The company is currently assessing a number of other engines that could be used, but details have yet to be revealed.
“Over the coming years, we will be expanding our range of sportscars as we look to meet the differing needs and desires of potential customers – from the lifestyle customer to the ultimate thrill-seeker. The AeroSeven Concept is the first model in that journey,” said Caterham Cars CEO Graham Macdonald.
