Motor Trend Magazine, one of the most discerning and trusted automotive
publications in the world, tested our VF800 System @ 2.4 sec. 0-60 mph,
and 10.0 seconds flat in the 1/4 mile.
This was w/ OEM tires, set at factory recommended tire pressures, and on
regular tarmac (
not a prepared drag surface); which is the same manner
that they test every factory provided vehicle from a Toyota Camry or Tundra,
to a Porsche Cayman or 918.
That hardly constitutes "
barely faster than stock",
and in fact is quicker
than the McLaren P1 from 0-60mph, and matches the 1/4 mile of the
Porsche 918.
And for the record, our Huracan Performante Hypercharger System betters
ALL of those numbers, under the same testing procedures and conditions.
We also have dozens of customers who have independently tested with
VBOX at 2.3 seconds, and who have run as quick as 175 in the 1/2 mile.
NOTE: 175 in the 1/2 mile is no record by any stretch of the imagination,
but our supercharged cars cover that distance in less time than many turbo
cars with 1,XXX+ horsepower, despite them finishing with a higher trap speed.
That serves as the perfect example of defining "quicker"
versus "faster".
Lag or no lag, there's a reason why we get out of the hole quicker, and
start to build a gap up to 140 mph.
There are many ways to turn up the dial on horsepower, and we are not
solely married to the idea of supercharging;
but we are highly focused
on producing the most turn-key and reliable forced induction options on
the market, which we believe we have done.
This means no required supporting modifications, and no change in factory
recommended service or maintenance. We have
Gen1 V10 customers who
who are nearing the 100,000 (supercharged) mile mark, and
Gen2 owners
who are daily driving these cars to more than 12,000 miles per year, with
nothing more than regularly scheduled factory service appointments by
their local dealership or indy shop.
Road rallies, date nights, drag strip, road course, drifting, donuts, valet
parking, cars and coffee, canyon runs, dealership service appointments;
all while treating it like a completely factory optioned vehicle...
That's good enough in our book, and the reinforcing opinion of our title.
Possibly the most capable Huracan in the world ...
We could change it to "
Arguably the most capable Huracan in the world",
but either it would be provocative and lead us into a nice friendly conversation.
