Production of the Donkervoort D8 GT started!
The dutch company Donkervoort started their production of the D8 GT.
“Meet the first ‘no compromise’ GT that the world has ever seen. It’s a car with two faces, combined in a thrilling design. Maybe you feel attracted to the stylish GT, beautifully finished and built with dedication, according to the highest standards of craftsmanship? Or, maybe you prefer it as the ultimate, high-tech race car, built with thirty years experience and fed by the passion for racing? The Donkervoort D8 GT offers the best from both worlds. This is the new standard in the segment of ultra light super cars.”
The first 8 D8 GT’s have been sold already, and they will increase the amount of builds for this car to 25 a year.
Prices for the D8 GT are between €110.000,- till €185.000,- depending on what options you take.
You can get a 180HP, 210HP or 270HP version of this car and it weights only 650KG! Other company’s are searching for technical issues to lower their CO2 level, but Donkervoort changed some settings to get the weight of the car lower, so this will lower the CO2 level as well.
What they do is, creating the roof and doors from carbon fiber, so the roof weights even less then the substances roof.
