The Carrera GT has been conceived as strictly a road car. Yet its entire architecture is based on pure race technology. Assembly mass is concentrated at the center of the car. The fuel tank is located between the passenger shell and the mid-engine. So wheel load distribution remains constant - a vital prerequisite for outstanding road-holding properties. The center of gravity is extremely low, thanks to low height of the vehicle and deep mounting of engine and transmission. Result: high cornering speeds. Basic body material is carbon fiber. It alone provides all the properties required for top performance and superior dynamics, with minimum weight and maximum rigidity. And forms the basis for an innovative safety cage system. The Carrera GT features a race chassis with 2 double wishbone axles. It is designed for agile performance, superior handling and high safety even in extreme situations. An exclusive for a road car: pushrods on the rear axle. They allow positioning of struts on the transmission, and permit fine-tuning of the chassis as well as aerodynamically advantageous air ducting in the engine, transmission and rear axle area. Additionally, they reduce overall weight and the unsprung masses for still better performance. With adjustable spring mounts on all wheels, wheel load can be perfectly balanced. | |
| The Carerra GT in the Mohave desert. The speed is currently 160MPH. This car was built for speed, and the faster in goes, the better it handles. Keep this in mind next time you need to make a Quick trip to the store! | ||
