You must rarely hear the Ginetta car brand, but this British car company has long been in the European market since 1958. After few weeks ago, we were still astounded by Ginetta's latest supercar design, finally at the opening of the 2019 Geneva Motor Show, March 5, the name and price were announced.
And Ginetta finally inaugurated their newest supercar named Ginetta Akula which was interpreted in Russian as a shark. Even share names with nuclear-powered attack submarines.

This car is made of a perfect combination of carbon fiber and light metals that contribute to its low weight, which is around 1150 kg. The Akula is powered by a 6.0 liter V8 engine mounted in the middle with a five axis engine block.
In terms of performance, the rear-wheel drive car can produce power of 600 hp and can reach a top speed of 322 kph. The engine is combined with a six-speed gearbox transmission with paddle shifters. In addition, this car also has a limited torque slip differential and a ceramic carbon matrix brake that produces 1.2G deceleration.

"The concept behind the making of this Ginetta Akula is something truly individual, something that other brands cannot do because of limitations," said Gianeta's chairman Lawrence Tomlinson. "It designed to cut air like a shark splitting the water."
