British designer Guy Colborne, with experience in Opel Vauxhall, Bmw and Daewoo, had already tried it with the Elemental Motors RP1 high performance boat. Now, with the technical collaboration of the same company, it presents the Apex AP-0 electric hypercar, which aims according to what the company has declared, not only to compete with technically comparable models (it has 650 HP) such as the Lotus Evija, but also with much more powerful and expensive cars - such as the various Pininfarina Battista, Rimac C_Two and Dendrobium D-1 - thanks to a record weight / power ratio given that the AP-0 weighs 1,200 kg in running order against the more than 1,900 of Rimac .

Planned to go into production at the end of 2022, the Apex AP-0 has a line full of personality especially in the rear where the large central fin and two vertical ailerons resume aerodynamic concepts typical of Le Mans cars, creating with the eight groups a very original luminous identity. The construction includes a carbon monocoque, push-rod suspensions as in Formula One and an automatic system that manages the set-up, really low (9 cm from the ground) when the speeds become high. Apex declares an acceleration 0-100 in 2.3 seconds and a maximum speed of 305 km / h, all with a price that starts from 150 thousand pounds, excluding taxes (208 thousand euros).
