British EV hypercar-maker Dendrobium Automotive
brought its 1,800 HP all-electric D-1 model to the 2018 Salon Privé garden
party as production is nearly ready to begin.
In the coming months, we are to learn everything we
need to know about the D-1, including pricing, range, production run and full
performance specs. The D-1 hypercar was developed in the UK with the support
and expertise of the Williams Formula 1 team.
At Salon Privé, visitors had the chance to admire
the hypercar first-hand, from its futuristic exterior design (which includes
the Bio-Aerial Locomotion door and roof opening system), to the predominantly
black carbon fiber interior – inspired by human muscle fibers.
As of right now, the only performance specs known
about the D-1 are its 1,800 HP and 2,000 Nm of torque,
although these numbers are currently just targets that the company is hoping to
hit.
Those of you who’d rather not wait until the real
thing comes out can opt for the recently-launched 1:18 scale model (via
Dendrobium’s online store), which is limited to just 500 pieces, each costing US$ 250.
