(from Arrinera Automotive Press Release) 2014 Arrinera Hussarya
Design
The car body styling is characterized by dynamic lines, which clearly indicate the massive potential of the supercar. The front of the car is close to the ground which vastly improves its aerodynamic properties. Two air intakes allow cooling air to be directed onto the hot brakes. When looking at the car from the side, one cannot help the impression that the car is surprisingly asymmetrical: the passenger cabin is moved forwards and the door line rises distinctively – these features are something that we do not see very often in everyday traffic. The Arrinera supercar will be equipped with a 650HP engine. The car body will be unique and its aerodynamics and lightweight construction will make it possible to maximize the output of the engine. The stylist responsible for Arrinera's lines is Pavlo Burkatskyy.
Chassis and body
The chassis designed by Lee Noble have been made from high-strength steel of variable section and considerable torsional strength. It will be extraordinarily light and characterized by high deformation resistance. The expertise of the British designer (over 30 years in the industry) ensures suitable protection for the cars in this category. Optionally, the body, interior and floor can be made of Carbon/Kevlar fiber composite materials.
Interior
Individual elements will be made of high quality leather and composite materials. The car is equipped with an audio system, power windows and mirrors as well as air conditioning. For safety reasons – in case of a rollover – reinforced roll bars have been positioned behind the seats and both seats are equipped with inertia reel seat belts.
Engine
An 8-cylinder 6.2-litre engine with a maximum power of 650HP and 820 Nm torque.
Wheels
19-inch wheels create additional space for an expanded braking system. Light-alloy wheels with 255/35 R19 tyres (front) and 335/30 R19 (rear).
Brakes
Front wheels are equipped with 6-piston callipers and 380 mm brake discs. Rear wheels with 4-piston callipers and 350 mm brake discs.
Suspension
Independent, tapered, designed and optimised by Lee Noble.
Thermal vision camera
The car can be fitted with a thermal vision camera option, which monitors the area in front of the car at the distance of a few hundred metres. If the camera detects an object with a temperature exceeding the ambient temperature (presumably an animal or a human), the driver can see a bright and clear image of this object on a display located in the central console within normal sight line. This may significantly improve the safety level at night and when driving in fog as compared to xenon headlights.
Lee Noble
Lee Noble, a famous British car designer will lend his name to the project. He is currently a member of the supervisory board and a shareholder of Arrinera Automotive S.A. He will be responsible for technical aspects related to the supercar as well as for the design and production of the “rolling chassis”.
Lee Noble is a British entrepreneur, car designer and engineer. He has been acclaimed as the most prolific British car manufacturer ever. Over three decades, he has manufactured more than 2000 cars based on his own designs. Almost all of them produced innovative performance, not only focusing on comfort and flashy styling. The first of them – Ultima – was used as a test mule for a model which was to become the fastest production car in the world – the McLaren F1. Cars designed by Lee Noble achieve excellent time on the track, in most cases matching the top supercars.
