2016 Donkervoort D8 GTO-RS
No interior, há acabamento em couro premium, detalhes em fibra de carbono e volante revestido em Alcantara. O motor é um Audi 2.5 de quatro cilindros, com sistema de gerenciamento produzido com a ajuda da Bosch.
Donkervoort D8 GTO Bilster Berg Edition
O motor original do Donkervoort D8 GTO, um Audi 2.5 TFSI cinco cilindros turboalimentado, que produz 380 CV de potência a 5.500 RPM e 48,39 kgfm de torque a 1.750 RPM, permanece na versão especial Bilster Berg. A transmissão é manual de cinco marchas, com embreagem de competição e volante do motor mais leve.
Apesar do Donkervoort D8 GTO Bilster Berg Edition possuir a mesma motorização do Donkervoort D8 GTO original, haverá ganho de aceleração e velocidade na edição especial, e será obtido através da redução de peso, por volta de 10 kg, resultando em uma massa total de 685 kg.
Donkervoort D8 GTO
Como o carro pesa apenas 750 kg, o D8 GTO torna-se o carro mais rápido da Doonkervoort, que produz também o GT e o D8 270RS. O carro acelera de zero a 100 km/h em 3 segundos e atinge 255 km/h de velocidade máxima. Os índices de consumo de combustível são impressionantes para um carro como este, gastando de 10 a 12 litros a cada 100 km. O chassi tubular de aço possui partes em carbono e uma porta de uma peça só que abre no estilo das da Koenigsegg. As primeiras 25 unidades do carro, com o motor Audi 2.5 TFSI, estarão à venda no início de 2012, e o sucesso do carro foi tanto que metade delas já foi comprada até então.
Uma outra remessa de unidades do Donkervoort D8 GTO, equipadas com um motor ainda desconhecido do público, estará disponível no final do ano que vem, com preços que variam de cem mil a 150 mil euros, mais taxas.
Donkervoort is presenting a new generation of sports cars
The devotees have been waiting anxiously. Now it's here! After two and a half years of development Donkervoort Automobielen in Lelystad - in close collaboration with Audi Quattro GmbH - has presented the next generation of open sports cars: the Donkervoort GTO.
A combination of beautiful shape, the latest auto techniques and the ultimate experience. With a capacity of 340 to 400 HP and a torque of 450 Nm from about 1600 RPMs. And all this with a total weight of around 700 kilos. Without a doubt one of the fastest sports cars on the European market. And, with the first private preview for Donkervoort Ambassadors from all over Europe, received so enthusiastically that within a few hours approximately half of the first 25 specially designed GTOs were sold.
The GTO is clearly a size larger than its predecessors, the closed GT and the open D8 270RS. About 35 centimetres longer and 15 centimetres wider, to be exact. Necessary to accommodate the massive, longitudinally placed, five cylinder 340 hp 2.5 TFSI Audi motor and at the same time realise an astonishing balance in the design. The GTO is therefore a brand-new designed car. Only sharing 5% of the parts with the D8 270RS and about 30% with the much more recent GT. A milestone in the 34-year history of Donkervoort. With techniques directly derived from the aviation and aerospace industry. The first in a new generation of Donkervoort automobiles, according to Joop Donkervoort. The reason he also put the chassis number back to '0' starting with the GTO.
The first 25 specially designed GTOs are also equipped with a 2.5 TFSI motor, which is 30 kg lighter than the standard Audi variant. Joop Donkervoort about this: 'This weight savings is obtained by redesigning several accessory parts of the motor together with the Audi technicians. For example, amongst others a new intake manifold was developed. Because the intake follows a more favourable route through the motor area it is not only lighter, but has a favourable effect on the achievements of the motor as well. The dashboard in this design of the GTO is equipped with a special race module switch, which can increase the capacity from 340 to 400 HP at once. Connected to this is another Donkervoort novelty: the first car from Lelystad that has 'traction control' on board. Only for when it is raining of course.'
But this too does not end the renewal of the GTO. By joining the steel tubular frame with large carbon composite panels with glue, a unique combination of (significantly increased) rigidity and ultra-light weight was created. The carriage work also consists completely of carbon composite with as unique invention a one piece door (including integrated hinges), which can withstand a sideways blow of about 1500 kilos and of which the hinges can withstand a force of more than 1100 kilos .... with a total weight of only 980 gramms!! A technique derived from the aviation industry and never before applied in a car. Which is also true for the locking devices of the aluminium bonnet. Derived from the American rocket industry, where low weight, easy operation and smooth finishing - just like at Donkervoort - are of essential importance. In addition the undercarriage of the car has been thoroughly revised, the front axle has been equipped with a totally new anti-roll bar and the rear axle construction - to give the GTO extra stability - has a completely new design.
Donkervoort stands for experience, and that term has received a new meaning with the GTO. Tests with the first sample have incontrovertibly proven this. Even though it appears this car is amazingly well manageable. The production of the new car starts in 2012, whereby it is expected that the first specially designed GTOs will be delivered in the summer. The first 'regular' versions are expected on the European roads starting in 2013. The price of the new GTO is between € 100,000 and € 150,000 excluding taxes.
