At the beginning of the year, Czech company Praga Cars started production of its hypercar, the Praga Bohema. It is a limited edition that will be produced in just 89 examples, and the first car has already been delivered to its owner.
After the presentation in January, company owner Tomas Kasparek said: “This is an important moment for Praga in our 117-year history. We closely monitor every stage of the production process to ensure that the Bohema production model meets and even exceeds our customers’ expectations.”
Each car is hand-built with bare carbon and bespoke paint finishes available including gold leaf detailing. It is equipped with adjustable shock absorbers, 380 mm carbon-ceramic brakes, deep air intakes, a splitter and a unique rear wing, and an exhaust system made of titanium. It sits on a set of 18-inch wheels with thick-walled tires. It has a 65-liter fuel tank housed within a skeletal frame, as well as two 50-liter tanks in the rear wheel arches.
Inside, fixed seats can accommodate two adults, while the driver can adjust the pedals and the steering wheel features a digital display that displays basic readings and telemetry, including oil and coolant temperature, and even features a horn, which can be completely removed. There are also fighter-inspired air vents, a smartphone holder, storage compartments, and plenty of Alcantara.
When it comes to the powertrain, the Praga Bohema is powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V6 engine, taken from the Nissan GT-R, with 700 hp (522 kW) and 535 lb-ft (725 Nm) of torque. Weighing just under 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) the car can reach a top speed of more than 197 mph (317 km/h). The engine is paired with a Hewland 6-speed sequential manual transmission that sends power to the rear wheels.
The price of each car is 1.43 million euros + tax.
