Zenos Cars Reveals the E10 S with 250bhp
Highlights
Zenos Cars has taken the wraps off the E10 S, which is more powerful compared to the original E10. Founded by former Caterham boss Ansar Ali, Zenos Cars has introduced an evolution of the E10 - which definitely packs in a punch. Now to answer the question if it is road legal or not, yes it is.
The E10 S gets that punch from a mid-mounted turbo 4-cylinder, 2.0-litre EcoBoost engine which generates a maximum output of 250bhp at 7,000 rpm along with a peak torque of 400Nm at 2,500 rpm. A run from 0-100Km/h needs just 4.4 seconds and the S derivative tops out at 217Km/h.
Zenos has managed to keep the car's weight low, 700 kilograms to be precise, thanks to the carbon aluminum monocoque. It gets 16-inch front & 17-inch OZ alloy wheels wrapped around in Avon tires, with stopping power being provided by 285mm front & rear disc brakes.
The double wishbone independent front/rear suspension with Bilstein dampers give it the much needed stability, while the removable front and rear wings keep the aerodynamics in check.
Zenos Cars will expand its lineup with the E11 Roadster in 2016, which will then be followed by the E12 Coupe in 2018.
