The niche British sports car maker Zenos is planning to reveal a
new E10 in November.
On the back of requests from customers, the company
is planning to upgrade the E10 to make it more capable than ever. This will
involve a recipe including upgraded brakes with better brake cooling, a new
intercooler and a revised exhaust system.
The finished dish should be a track-focused sports
car delivering more than the 250 hp its 2.0-liter turbo’d engine originally
offered up, and a car more capable of handling the duress of track driving.
Other changes are also afoot at Zenos. Most notably,
the decision has been made to move production from Norfolk all the way to South
Africa. According to AC Cars boss Alan Lubinsky, this will result in the E10’s
price rising from its original £ 27,995, a necessary step to ensure the brand
can stick around long enough to fight the likes of Radical, Caterham and Lotus.
Zenos will sell the first 25 upgraded E10s as
limited edition models and offer the upgrades to existing owners.
