Spanish car maker a.d. Tramontana is finalizing the XTR, an F1-styled, crazy-fast, and ultra-low production supercar – the second from the boutique automaker. Under hood is a Mercedes-Benz 5.5-liter twin-turbo V-12 that will crank out 888 horsepower and 678 pound-feet of torque, pushing the mostly carbon-fiber coupe that weighs in at under 3,000 pounds.
The engine comes from Tramontana’s previous model, the tandem-seat R. The XTR is pretty similar to its predecessor, save for a new racing-spec gearbox and more aerodynamic aid from carbon fiber, but certain tweaks cajoled an extra 150-plus horsepower from the original engine. The R hit 60 mph in 3.6 seconds and topped out at 214 mph, so expect those numbers to go lower and get higher, respectively. No word on whether it, too, will have fighter jet tandem seats, but the illustrations present a narrow cockpit.
The XTR will be available later this year for 420,000 euros, or $514,000. For now, expect only a dozen of these to roll off production each year, but Tramontana is rumored to be looking to expand.
