The Kalmar 7-97 RS-R Evo model year 2025 is based on the classic 964 models, using either a 993 or a XNUMX as the starting point.
Countless changes have been made to the vehicle to maintain the typical driving dynamics while seamlessly integrating modern technical components.
Kalmar 7-97 RS-R Evo
The most important adjustments include an adaptive chassis, a reinforced and stiffer structure, a newly built six-cylinder boxer engine with an output of up to 401 PS, a better braking system and an aerodynamically optimized carbon body structure manufactured using the CFD process.
There are also other features such as air conditioning, an electric servo and an integrated cooling compartment in the interior. Such details ensure modern comfort without losing the charm of the 911.
adjustments for off-road use
The mods also include changes that allow the vehicle to be used in extreme conditions. The body has been reinforced with Kevlar and completely seam welded, with a permanently integrated cross member providing additional structural stability. The bodywork area has also been raised by up to 25 cm and by extending the track width of the rear axle by 110 mm modified.
And the active TracTive chassis, equipped with adjustable dampers, ensures that the classic can cope with a wide range of loads in different usage scenarios. The use of smaller rims with Off-road tires or alternatively with narrower Michelin WRC snow tires.
engine and drive technology
At the heart of the 7-97 RS-R Evo is a 4,1-litre boxer engine with six cylinders, which produces around 400 PS With a total weight of only 1.125 kg is the power to weight ratio phenomenal. The engine impresses with its characteristic air-cooled operation, which, despite the sporty tuning, does not tend towards the area of a pure competition vehicle.
The power curve shows a strong increase in the mid-speed range, while the speed up to 7000 U / min Of course, all the power is only transmitted via the rear wheels.
body and chassis optimization
The body of the 7-97 RS-R Evo is inspired by the classic 911 S/T. The use of Carbon not only ensures a massive weight reduction, but also more strength and rigidity.
The reinforced structure, including the seam-welded frame and the integrated cross member, makes the Restomod resistant to possible damage during use. And the active chassis always enables continuous adaptation to the respective driving conditions and thus contributes perfectly to optimizing roadholding.
As expected, not a bargain
The price for the dreamlike modification is of course not a bargain. It is around 580.000 EUR (around £500.000). The mods show a complete integration of modern technology into a classic that retains its legendary driving dynamics but can now handle many more off-road situations.
