GTA Concept ready for its official launch

A limited edition of 99 units of this car will be produced. Designed by the engineer director of GTA Motor, the Valencian Sento Pallardó, it is characterized by the exclusivity of its look and its high performance.

The several tests realized until now have been a success. This "supersport" car is slated to have great performance, with an acceleration from 0 to 100 Km/h in under 3 seconds and a top speed of over 350 km/h.

The experience in competition has been a key ingredient for the development of this car, that has five world patents. The chassis has been created from a combination of Kevlar, carbon fibers and titanium.

The engine is a V10 mounted in a longitudinal rear position and has 780 horsepower and 920 Nm of torque. The car possesses a seven speed sequential- manual geabox, with the option of an automatic system with paddle shifters in the steering wheel.

The suspension consists of a double wishbone setup with adjustable shock absorbers that allow the driver to choose the ride stiffness. The ride height can also be adjusted.

The tires are the latest Pirelli P Zeros which measure 255/35 on 19-inch wheels up front, and 335/35 on 20-inch wheels at the rear. The wheels are manufactured exclusively for this car.

The ABS-equipped braking system consists of 380mm diameter carbon ceramic ventilated disc brakes with 6 piston callipers that are manufactured by AP Racing. The car's glass panoramic roof gives it an open air feeling whilst simultaneously being sporty and elegant. The roof has a patented system of interior lighting and liquid crystal shading.

The Project, directed by GTA team manager Domingo Ochoa, began three years ago and has reached distribution agreements with the most relevant dealers in the world. After the project was announced one year ago, the GTA Concept is now a reality.

Domingo Ochoa was quoted saying: "We announced the project for everyone one year ago, after developing it technically and logistically for two years. Now, after a hard and exhaustive job, we are going to show the results. We are convinced that it will be a car that will set a precedent in the international automobile scene. We are very proud and everyone will enjoy our dream that will come true very soon".
