Thread: Lightweight Spartan-V from Australia

A new member to the sports car scene is this Spartan-V. The limited edition is build in Australia and powered by a 1198cc V-Twin Italian Ducati engine producing 170hp. The engine is linked to a sequential six-speed gearbox. The total weight of the vehicle is less than 300kg or 661 pounds.

The company behind the project states that the vehicle is capable of reaching 100km/h (62mph) in less than three seconds and that it tops out at a top speed of 280km/h (173mph).
