According to the first information the lightweight GT will be powered by a 200-hp mid-mounted engine and will weight just 870 kg, thanks to the structure and body made entirely from carbon fiber and aluminum.

A 1:4 scale model is currently being developed. The estimated retail price wold be around 45-50,000 Euros.

The project is led by Jim Dowle, a former McLaren designer who has worked together with Gordon Murray in the development of the McLaren F1 (1991) and the Mercedes SLR.
