Artega GT - Design sketchThe vehicle dimensions are 3,950 x 1,880 x 1,180 mm - about the same of a B-segment car like the VW Polo but with an extremely low profile.

The Artega GT is powered by a VW-derived 3.6 liters V6 unit that delivers about 300 hp and enables a top speed of 270 km/h. The exterior was designed by Henrik Fisker.

It will be produced in a limited series of 500 units per year starting from November 2007 and will be sold worldwide from the middle of 2008 for an approximate price of €75,000.
