The Hungarian company that creates lightweight cars designed to be driven has unveiled one of its new projects, the KAMM 912c Targa. It is an ultra-lightweight car based on the Porsche 912.
The car weighs less than 800 kilograms thanks to the use of carbon fiber components such as body panels and a roll bar, while the side mirrors, rear seat parts and windows are made of Lexan polycarbonate. This means that it weighs as much as the first-generation Smart ForTwo coupe, but unlike it, this car has sporty characteristics. It is painted in Tangerine and additional equipment includes alloy wheels that resemble classic steel ones, a carbon roof rack with a surfboard.
When it comes to the powertrain, the original 1.6-liter air-cooled four-cylinder engine has been replaced by a 2.0-L engine with 188 hp (140 kW) and 151 lb-ft (205 Nm) of torque. The engine is mated to a five-speed dogleg gearbox, offering a choice of long, short and touring gears. It should also be noted that the car has a TracTive semi-active front and rear suspension, as well as a set of Brembo brakes with a hydraulic handbrake, for a better driving experience.
The starting price of this car is 395,000 euros, and KAMM offers customization of each car according to the customer’s wishes.
