Trident announces world's fastest diesel sports car

Trident, the British sports car brand, has announced the global availability of its flagship Iceni sports car, the world's fastest and most fuel efficient diesel sports car.

With a top speed in excess of over 306km/h and the ability to run for 2000 miles (3219km) on a single tank of mineral or bio-diesel, the Iceni uses torque multiplication technology to achieve this unique combination of speed, power and fuel efficiency.

Two new models to the Iceni range were also unveiled, the Iceni Magna (fastback) and Iceni Venturer (estate).

All three models boast the same impressive specifications, each with its own distinctive design. In addition, the cars can store a minimum of two suitcases, as well as two holdalls, making a 2000-mile (3219km) road trip a reality.

It is widely believed that horsepower delivers power, speed and fuel efficiency, but it is in fact torque that matters. Using this technology in a road car increases fuel efficiency by up to 20 percent.

The British designed Trident sports cars boast a distinctive look, with clean curves and the unusual sculpted rear. The cars also incorporate over 39 bespoke, designed and manufactured components, including independent control of each car seat and oculight roof. In addition, every Iceni can be built to specific customer specifications, ensuring a truly unique driving experience

The three Iceni sports cars are available to buy globally with prices starting from £96,000 (S$202,961).
