Emerson Fittipaldi, the man behind recently-launched
Fittipaldi Motors, says that his special EF7 supercar will be sold in the
United States.
The Pininfarina-designed supercar from the Geneva
Motor Show will be restricted to just 39 units globally and initially, they
will be restricted for use on the track. Down the road, Fittipaldi says the
firm will look at making the EF7 street legal.
Fittipaldi's creation is powered by a naturally-aspirated 4.8-liter V8 engine
revving to 9,000 rpm. It delivers 600 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque and
incorporates a six-speed sequential gearbox funneling power to the rear wheels
thanks to a two-way mechanical limited slip differential.
Deliveries of the Fittipaldi EF7 are expected to
commence next year.
