(from HB Press Release) In January 2012 we showed you drawings of the HB Coupé series. Due to the overwhelming response we have continued to design and adjust to make it a feasible project. We have made some big changes. We down sized the engine from 6 to 4 cylinders. We managed to reduce the weight by 200 kilo’s. The result is a light weight car with the same performance but using less fuel. It is serviceable in any garage. It has modern day comforts and safety features. It can be used as a daily driver, but awards the more sportive driver. We believe it is the way to go. There will be a limited production run of 40 cars in total in 2014. Reserving a production slot is based on first come first serve.

Carbon Fibre Monocoque
Our Monocoque structure
is best explained by this simple image. It consists of 3 parts - the
chassis plate, the inner shell and the body shell. It is quite
something special. It has impact zones in front and
back and reinforced side impact structures. It is very strong and
very light. The complete monocoque weighs less then 100 kilo’s.
Contrary to general
belief carbon fibre can be fixed in case of small mishaps. It is
extremely durable and the material properties are excellent for car
construction. We use vacuum injection for our 29
moulds. It is completely handcrafted in house.
Reservation Process
