Donkervoort, the Dutch boutique car manufacturer, has unveiled its latest creation, the Donkervoort F22.
The F22 weighs in at an anorexic 750kg, yet boasts 493bhp from its five-cylinder turbo motor that is supplied by Audi Sport. This translates to a power-to-weight ratio of 656bhp per tonne for the F22. With no speed limiter, the F22 is expected to reach a top speed of around 290km/h.
Donkervoort claims the F22 will provide an engaging drive with its pure mechanical driveline Donkervoort claims that the car will provide an engaging driving experience for the driver, with its pure mechanical driveline. This is coupled to a rev-matched, five-speed manual gearbox driving the rear wheels through a new limited-slip Torsen differential.
Besides saving at least 12kg over a six or seven-speed gearbox, the shorter five-speed unit also means the F22 can carry its engine further rearward, in a front-mid engine position, thus optimising balance and handling. The short-throw gearbox utilises Bosch rev-matching technology, with the option to switch it off to allow drivers to heel-and-toe.
The gearbox and engine mate to a Torsen limited-slip differential, encased in a new housing that no longer requires an additional cooling system for demanding track work. The new housing is stronger and helps minimise driveline noise in the passenger compartment.
The chassis is made from a hybrid of tubular steel and carbon fibre The chassis is made from a hybrid of tubular steel and carbon fibre, including the liberal use of the Ex-Core carbon sandwich system. The result is a 100% boost in torsional and bending rigidity over the outgoing D8 GTO Individual Series.
New dampers include an adjustable hydraulic ride height system, which can raise or lower the F22 by as much as 35mm.
The Donkervoort F22 also brings a new AP Racing braking system into play, with steel discs and a four-piston front caliper setup, saving 10kg over the already featherweight system on the outgoing car.
Customers who want a hardcore driving experience can opt for a steering system with no servo assistance Donkervoort also allows its customers to customise their F22 to their own liking. Buyers can opt for a steering system with no servo assistance, or a lightweight, electronically powered, adjustable power-assistance system.
Beyond that, one-off paintwork can be specified, and owners can choose to emboss their preferred designs into the seat trims.
The Donkervoort F22s will be sold in North America, the Middle East, and Europe, with pricing starting from $349,000 in European markets.
