Vuhl, a new highly specialised supercar manufacturer, will launch onto the world stage when it unveils its first production car, the Vuhl 05, at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed.
According to the company – whose name stands for ‘Vehicles of Ultra-lightweight and High-performance’ – the Vuhl 05 is a “road-legal lightweight supercar that’s been precision-engineered for the track and endowed with exhilarating performance.”
A brand started by brothers Iker and Guillermo Echeverria, whose Mexican/American design agency came up with the 05’s look, Vuhl will produce its chassis and complete final assembly in Mexico City after receiving lightweight bodies fabricated in Canada before vehicle handling is be optimised in the UK.
Iker Echeverria said the Vuhl 05 and its successors will be notable for uncompromising build quality, rigorous attention to detail and a driving experience par excellence.
“We intend Vuhl products to be renowned for their effective simplicity and aesthetics guided by a purity of function.”
The 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed takes place between July 11-14.
