The hints from the tuner and manufacturer are condensing Ares design a first completely rebuilt vehicle based on the brand new Chevrolet Corvette C8 will come. Namely the so-called "Ares Design S project“That the C8 with its aluminum chassis transforms it into a super slim sports car that reminds us a little Devel sixteen remind. And Ares even claims that the first deliveries could be made by the end of the year. At least Ares is boss and former Lotus CEO Danny Bahar this opinion and gave it directly to the team at "Top Gear" revealed in a conversation. The Ares S project retains the chassis, electronics and eight-speed dual clutch transmission of the C8 Corvette. However, some things are still unclear about the engine.

Because the tuner says that the 6,2-liter V8 is said to have 715 PS at 6.450 rpm and 970 NM torque at 5.150 rpm. should perform and accelerate the athlete to 3 km / h in well under 100 seconds. And supposedly it turns a hefty 9.000 rpm. We are pretty sure that this is hardly achievable with the current LT2-V8. At least not within a reasonably affordable framework! However, Bahar does not say what is different. "That remains a secret between our USA supplier and us". And Bahar says to Top Gear: "They are all mechanical modifications that cannot be achieved through software. The sound is inspired by the old F1 V10 and has a very high tonality.“We're excited to see how the company has implemented that. Because an additional 200 hp while not charging with a turbocharger or compressor should be a real challenge.

maximum speed of 9.000 rpm

In addition, the speed of 9.000 rpm. That would be a whopping 2.500 revolutions more than the series and even 700 rpm. more than the high-revving V8 (S65B40) of the E92 M3. Certainly not an easy task to get the engine stable. The alleged specifications suggest a "crazy overhaul". Or do you already have more information on the announced Z06, which is expected with a 5,5 liter V8 vacuum cleaner and approx. 600 hp? That could of course also be the case! Incidentally, it should remain with rear-wheel drive in combination with an optimized limited-slip differential. And no stone remains unturned on the outside either. The S project has a distinctive carbon body with a low and particularly short front and large fenders. The dome in the middle guarantees a good overview and the flowing roof line is only supported by one Roof cap interrupted for enough fresh air. There are air slots all around the fenders and at the Bugatti Chiron-style rear there is a powerful exhaust system with vertical tailpipes in the style of the aforementioned Devel Sixteen or the current Ford GT.

eye-catching exhaust system and no rear window

The exhaust system is positioned a little further in the center of the vehicle. And it seems quite similar to the new one Maserati MC20not to give a rear window on the Ares S project either. A camera system could solve the "problem" for this. And Top Gear also writes that they have also given extensive thought to the cabin. Similar to the look on the outside, everything should be completely new here too. Nothing should remind us of the C8 as an organ donor. Ares Design wants to sell exactly 2 copies of the S project within 24 years and starts with prices from € 500.000. If the model is successful, the company does not rule out further variants.
