As a result, the American firm, notable for its speed-centric approach to car design, promises “phenomenal acceleration”. The Revolution Roadster will most likely go beyond the road car’s 2.6sec 0-62mph time and could even push further than its claimed 300mph top speed.
Straight-line speed isn’t the only target for Revolution cars, however, with new aerodynamics fitted to send the car around tracks as quickly as possible. This is most visible in the adjustable full-width carbonfibre rear wing, which can deliver more than 363kg of downforce at 186mph and more than 635kg at 249mph.
Double-wishbone suspension returns but now with more aggressive alignment settings and adjustable dampers.
Stopping power comes in the form of carbon-ceramic brakes – fitted as standard – that feature multi-piston calipers.
