HTT PLETHORE LC-750
Pléthore is the latin
word for abundance -- and the perfect description of the HTT Pléthore LC750:
abundantly fast, abundantly luxurious, abundantly exciting to drive and to look
at. And let’s make this clear from the outset: abundantly different from every
other supercar. The nearest thing to a F1™ car for the road.
It is common knowledge
that F1™ cars represent the pinnacle of automotive performance and driving
excitement. The idea behind the Pléthore was to create a perfectly balanced
supercar for the track and road, leveraging Formula One™ layout and technology
for a near-F1™ driving experience. The HTT Pléthore LC750 is the realization of
that dream.
The first thing that
separates the Pléthore from other supercars is its three-seater layout. This
arrangement allows the engine to be truly in the middle of the car, as opposed
to the mid-rear or rear engine location of most other so-called “mid-engine”
cars. A major step change.
The result is perfect
weight balance: 49.2/50.8 front/rear without the driver, 50/50 with. The
Pléthore’s perfectly balanced monocoque carbon-fibre tub with integrated rollcage
allows the car to be driven with confidence both on the track and on the road.
With equal cornering
performance in left and right turns, the Pléthore truly is the closest thing to
a Formula One-style single-seater driving experience.
That exquisite balance is especially important
when you understand the Pléthore’s extraordinary performance capabilities. This
aggressive yet elegant driving machine is powered by a supercharged 750 HP
aluminum V8 which permits it to reach 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds. Power is
delivered to the road through a similarly capable electronically controlled
6-speed gearbox, giving the driver the choice between a conventional shift
lever and Formula One-style paddle shifters. Top speed is an astonishing 247
MPH, thanks to a racecar-like power-to-weight ratio of more than 0.6 horsepower
per kilogram.
With that ability to
go, it’s only natural that the Pléthore has matching capabilities to stop and
turn. The brakes are massive racing-quality AP discs at all four corners and
the suspension is by track-inspired double wishbones. The suspension is
electronically adjustable. It’s default 5-inch ground clearance can be changed
at the touch of a button to 7.4 inches for clearing taller speed bumps and
steeper driveway transitions. The entire process takes just a few seconds.
And while you might
think the Pléthore’s shape was designed strictly to turn heads, it is in fact
extraordinarily efficient and contributes mightily to the car’s overall
performance.
Its low coefficient of
drag allows it to achieve such tremendous speeds and careful attention to
airflow above and below the car creates stabilizing levels of downforce when
the car accelerates.
Along with its superior
performance, the Pléthore features a luxurious and ergonomically optimized
cockpit that comfortably accommodates drivers and passengers from 5’2” to 6’4”.
The controls and information delivery systems owe as much to executive jets as
conventional racecar practice: everything’s at the driver’s fingertips, mounted
on the steering wheel or the ceiling control panel.
In conjunction with
various global technical partners, highly experienced race car experts,
business partners, government agencies, automotive communications experts,
potential vehicle owners, and a highly passionate, deeply committed ownership
and leadership team, the Pléthore breaks new ground in the road/track vehicle
development process. Extensive track testing on our prototype has resulted in
HTT being ready to provide the world with a vehicle of rare greatness: a
single-seater-type driving experience you can enjoy with two friends.
