This is the GTA Concept – a 217mph hypercar built by little-known Spanish company GTA Motor. The sleek machine is powered by a V10 engine which develops 780bhp and 678lb/ft of pulling power. GTA Motor claim the concept will accelerate from 0-62mph (100kph) in less than 3 seconds.
That would make it one of the fastest cars on sale:
• Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 SV – 3.2 seconds
• Gumpert Apollo – 3.0
• Ariel Atom – 2.88
• Koenigsegg CCXR – 2.8
• SSC Ultimate Aero TT – 2.78
• Caparo T1 – 2.5
• Bugatti Veyron 2.5
Carbon ceramic 380mm brake discs supply the necessary stopping power. Power is sent to the 20-inch rear wheels through a seven-speed sequential manual gearbox or optional semi-automatic system.
Development began three years ago and with testing now complete, the first Spanish supercar will be launched at the end of April with production limited to just 99 examples. The GTA Concept’s official name will be announced at the car’s launch, possibly to give the company time to think of a Spanish word which hasn’t already been nabbed by Lamborghini.
