Everywhere you look, there\u2019s a new electric supercar with outrageous horsepower figures, gliding along to 60 miles per hour in complete silence. But despite the spectacle, customers simply aren\u2019t falling in love with these battery-powered machines. Because while a battery-powered sedan might make sense, a top-tier performance car needs sound\u2014real, mechanical sound.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s why the GP1 from British newcomer Garagisti & Co is likely to thrill enthusiasts everywhere\u2014even if it only exists as a rendering, for now.<\/p>\n
The GP1 is a supercar built around a naturally aspirated V-12 engine, paired with a manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive. In other words: A purist\u2019s dream. “A car built purely for the joy of unfiltered driving,” the company says in a statement. And honestly, we\u2019re inclined to believe them.<\/p>\n
We\u2019ll get to the design later, but let\u2019s focus on what really matters: The engine. At the core of the GP1 is an all-new, 6.6-liter naturally aspirated V-12 developed by Italtecnica, a respected Italian motorsport engineering firm. The numbers are impressive\u2014800 horsepower at 9,000 rpm, with torque surpassing 516 pound-feet.<\/p>\n
All that power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a longitudinally mounted six-speed Xtrac manual gearbox “that offers unparalleled tactility and engagement,” says Garagisti & Co. The weight of the car is just 2,204 pounds.<\/p>\n
‘Unparalleled tactility and engagement’<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The mechanical components come from top-tier companies like Brembo, \u00d6hlins, and other trusted suppliers with proven expertise\u2014not just in road cars, but in high-level motorsport as well.<\/p>\n
The design is rolling art\u2014sculpted forms that, according to the company, are “a celebration of form, blending cues from the golden age of wedge design.” The striking lines were penned by Angel Guerra, a former designer for Bugatti and Rimac, drawing inspiration from iconic machines like the Lancia Stratos Zero, Lamborghini Countach, and other masterpieces by Marcello Gandini.<\/p>\n
Sharp, purposeful lines shape the car\u2019s aerodynamics, which have been meticulously refined\u2014including what may be one of the largest diffusers ever fitted to a road car. Above it, four prominent exhaust pipes take center stage, framed by distinctive X-shaped LED taillights.<\/p>\n

The GP1\u2019s interior embraces pure minimalism. There are no oversized screens, no touch-sensitive controls\u2014just the essentials. A prominent central tunnel sits between the two seats, featuring physical switches and a traditional gear lever. \u201cEverything is exactly where it should be,\u201d the company says. The design follows Angel Guerra\u2019s guiding principle: \u201cJust you, the car, and the road ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Garagisti & Co. GP1 is now in the final stages of design and development, with deliveries expected in the coming months. But you\u2019ll have to move fast\u2014production is strictly limited to just 25 units, each starting at around $3.3 million (\u00a32.45 million), excluding taxes, shipping, and bespoke customization.<\/p>\n
The first 12 buyers will also gain access to Garagisti\u2019s exclusive Open Doors program, offering a rare opportunity to meet the engineers and designers behind the GP1 and witness the car\u2019s creation up close.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Everywhere you look, there\u2019s a new electric supercar with outrageous horsepower figures, gliding along to 60 miles per…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":139515,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[20894,158,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-139514","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-supercars","9":"tag-technology","10":"tag-united-states","11":"tag-unitedstates","12":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115015515428508715","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139514","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=139514"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139514\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/139515"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=139514"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=139514"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=139514"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
