Britain's most economical two-seater sports car

The entry-level version of the iconic Seven - the 160 - is not only the most economical Seven in the company's history but also the most cost-effective conventionally powered two-seater sports car on the market. The newest model to join the ever-expanding Seven range is powered by a super compact, turbocharged three-cylinder Suzuki engine, which enables it to achieve an impressive fuel economy of 24.5km/L and emit just 114g/km of CO₂.

The combination of the car's live-axle rear suspension, efficient engine and ultra-low weight offer drivers the unforgettable Caterham experience in the most affordable package yet. Producing 80bhp from its 660cc engine and generating a top speed of 161km/h, the Seven 160 will reach 100km/h in a swift 6.5 seconds.

The Caterham Seven 160 focuses on unique charm and handling ahead of pure power, bringing unrivalled levels of efficiency, fun and value for money to the budget sportscar segment.

In Europe and the rest of the world an altered, EU5-compliant version called 165 is available. The number five at the end of the EU spec car's moniker signifies that the vehicle complies with the EU5 emissions standards, allowing it to be sold across mainland Europe and beyond.
