V8 with 701 HP

Mazzanti Automobili has finally revealed the production version of the Evantra V8at 2013 Top Marques Monaco.

Described as a "tailor-made supercar", the Evantra V8 is a two-seater coupe offered with carbon fiber composite materials (PRO-BODY model) or with a hand-crafted, aluminum-made body personalized by the client (ONE-BODY model).

Power comes from an aluminum V8 7.0-liter naturally-aspirated engine producing 701 bhp (523 kW) at 6,600 rpm and 848 Nm (625 lb-ft) of torque at 4,500 rpm. Linked to a 6-speed manual or sequential gearbox, the Evantra reaches 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.2 seconds, on its way to a top speed of more than 217 mph (350 km/h).

It rides on 20-inch OZ alloys covered by Continental 255/30 R20 front and 305/25 R20 rear tires. Stopping power is provided by Brembo with their 380mm discs with six-piston calipers for the front wheels and 360mm discs with four-piston calipers for the rear axle. Optionally available are carbon ceramic brakes.

The Evantra is 4325mm long, 1225mm tall and 1955mm wide, with a 2550mm wheelbase and a curb weight of 1,300 kg (2,866 lbs) for the aforementioned PRO-BODY variant.

The interior cabin will also be tailor-made according to client's requests. Mazzanti is offering all-natural leather prepared with special aniline leather treatment. The center console sports an AIM dash and data acquisition system plus a Bosch headunit with support for navigation, CD and MP3.

Different maps for the engine can be selected from the lower part of the console where there's a modality selector with "Strada – Street" and "Corsa – Race" modes. The Nardi steering wheel has a small display showing current gear, while behind it are the paddles for the variant with the sequential gearbox.
