The two-seater with its unparalleled performance bangs from 0 on 100 in about 5,2 seconds and has a GP finish in racing gray metallic as well as accents on the caps, etc. in Melting Silver Metallic. In addition still successful contrasts in red. The sporty character becomes by the large one roof spoiler and the mighty front apron trimmed to "GP" (Grand Prix). Under the bonnet there is a 306-hp 2,0-liter four-cylinder twin-scroll turbo engine with a torque of 450 Nm.

Whether GP front bumper, GP rear bumper, GP double-tube sports exhaust system or GP rear spoiler, everything is huge. The optical highlight from the front is in any case the apron. The large air intakes in the front bumper ensure that the engine and brake are properly cooled. This ensures maximum performance. The accents in Chili Red stand out optically. The rear bumper has a diffuser that is tailored to the car and looks like racing cars. It increases the contact pressure and contributes to increasing the grip on the road. The 90 mm double tube sport exhaust system made of premium stainless steel looks great and has a really fierce acoustics for a production car. The unique rear spoiler in Racing Gray Metallic and Chili Red also ensures more contact pressure.

The acceleration is a special experience when switching with the chic paddle shifters, which are incidentally produced in the 3D printing process. The gear change is extremely fast with the 8 automatic transmission. The GP also comes with a Torsen-Limited slip differentialthat optimizes both handling and dynamics. The steering wheel with Nappalederbezug and the seam in Chili Red is handy and chic. At the top there is an 12 clock mark. The sports seats feature a Dinamica leather combination with silver-colored side edges, accent stitching in red and a GP badge under the fixed headrests and red straps.

differential lock

The transmission has an integrated mechanical differential lock that allows perfect traction in particularly dynamic cornering. It is linked to the ESP and acts as a lateral lock to reduce the speed difference between the two drive wheels. Under full load, a blocking effect of up to 31 percent is achieved. With the lock, the GP is extremely agile and can be consistent. In addition, he can accelerate even more dynamically out of turns towards his brothers.
