Naran Automotive reveals the Naran GT3-inspired hypercar

Naran Automotive, the new manufacturer of luxury ultra-high performance cars, has revealed the exterior design of its first model, the Naran, set to debut in 2021.

The four-seater hyper-coupe will deliver a GT3-style driving experience for the road when it arrives next year, combining the uncompromising performance and dynamics of a track-focused hypercar, with opulent ultra-luxurious materials inside and out.

Just 49 examples will be created. Each vehicle produced will be individually tailored to the personal taste of the collector, including the designation of a bespoke model name - a convention normally reserved for luxury super yachts.

The Naran will be capable of 0-100km/h in less than 2.3 seconds, 0-160km/h in 4.56 seconds and an expected top speed of over 370km/h, with the 5.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine producing 1,048bhp and 1,036Nm of torque. The motorsport-inspired aerodynamic package helps produce 1,377kg of downforce, exceeding that of a GT3 race car.

Power is delivered by an all-wheel drive system, with the option to switch to rear-wheel drive. The race-derived double-wishbone suspension will apply adjustable front and rear anti-roll bars and camber and toe adjustments so customers can tailor the dynamic set-up to meet track specific demands. Damping is provided by an Ohlins four-way adjustable race-spec system. The Naran will also adopt a hydraulic steering rack, carbon ceramic brakes and spherical bearings for improved steering feel and precision.

The body of the Naran is made completely out of carbon fibre, including the spoilers, front splitter and rear diffuser. The performance-focused theme is continued with the addition of 22-inch hybrid-carbon wheels and a distinct side aero blade exposing the front wheel arch for cooling and aerodynamic efficiency.
