Introduction
Apollo Automobil is set to thrill extreme car enthusiasts with its latest hypercar, the Apollo Evo, a track-focused beast powered by a naturally aspirated 6.3-liter V12 engine producing 800 horsepower. The Evo follows in the footsteps of the Intensa Emozione (IE) and celebrates 20 years of the Apollo legacy. Available in an ultra-limited run of just 10 cars, it promises exclusivity and extreme performance in equal measure.
Design & Engineering
At 186 inches long, the Apollo Evo is Apollo’s largest creation yet, sporting radical and aggressive styling with a mixture of sharp lines and aerodynamic elements reminiscent of Le Mans hypercars. The body includes a massive adjustable rear wing, aerodynamic fins, and a low-profile cockpit inspired by racing prototypes. It rides on track-focused Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires mounted on lightweight wheels, optimized for grip and stability.
The car’s central racing monocoque weighs only 364 pounds within a total dry weight of 2,866 pounds, emphasizing an extreme power-to-weight ratio. Apollo claims a 15% increase in chassis stiffness over its predecessor, while advanced carbon-fiber and aluminum materials keep weight in check.
Performance
The 6.3-liter V12 engine sends 800 horsepower and over 765 NM of torque to the rear wheels via a six-speed sequential gearbox, offering raw, engaging control for the driver. The Evo’s immense output launches it from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.7 seconds, with a top speed of 208 MPH (335 KM/H). Unlike many track-only cars that run on slick tires, the Apollo Evo employs street-legal track tires for better usability.
Apollo has enhanced braking systems comprising ceramic discs and upgraded calipers, along with suspension and aerodynamic packages refined for sharp response and stability through high-speed corners.
Exclusivity & Market
Production will be capped at 10 units, making the Apollo Evo a rare prize for collectors and hypercar aficionados alike. It symbolizes the modern hypercar era’s blend of traditional engineering excellence with cutting-edge material science and aerodynamic innovation. Each car receives bespoke build quality with an estimated price soaring above $2.5 million (about AED 9.2 million), underscoring its exclusivity and craftsmanship.
Verdict
The Apollo Evo is a monumental statement from a company striving to cement its legacy alongside hypercar legends. With an intense naturally aspirated V12 engine, razor-sharp performance, and just 10 lucky owners worldwide, the Evo offers an uncompromising connection between man and machine, a rare celebration of analog passion in a rapidly electrifying world.
