Naran: four seats, 5.0-liter V8 engine and 1,000 hp for the English hypercar
The allure of ultra-high performance supercars seems to resist every trend and fashion in the automotive market. A demonstration of this is Naran Automotive, a recent English company born with the intention of creating cars with uncompromising performance. Unlike the competition, Naran does not focus on electrification, keeping the combustion engine as the protagonist of the project.

No hybrid or full electric, therefore. Under the hood of the brand's first model will be a 5.0-liter bi-turbo petrol V8 placed in the front-center position. The engine was built on commission from Naran by Racing Dynamics and according to advances it should deliver 1,052 Hp of maximum power.

Absolute performance

In order to exploit and manage a similar amount of horsepower, Naran Automotive has equipped the car with all-wheel drive. A solution that allows you to reach 100 km / h in about 3 seconds and reach a maximum peak of 370 km / h. The manufacturer's goal, however, is to offer not only speed but also pure performance: to offer an experience as close as possible to what one would experience aboard a racing car.

The double arm suspension motorsport inspired swing that offers many adjustments. The power steering is hydraulic and not electric while the brakes are obviously in carbon ceramic. The aerodynamic solutions developed by Naran allow it to generate a downforce of 1,377 kg, ensuring excellent road holding even at very high speeds. The monocoque is derived from the BMW 8 Series.

Personalization

Naran's project focuses on performance and exclusivity. The car will be produced in only 49 units, each of which can be customized according to the taste and needs of the customer. Luxurious and comfortable, it can accommodate up to four passengers. The English start-up, unlike the competition, has already a concrete prototype ready; therefore, nothing to do with computer renderings.

The debut of the final version is scheduled for early next year. The company has not yet revealed the price, it is useless to expect an economic price list given the characteristics and qualities of this car, ready to throw the gauntlet to much more noble and historic realities.
