Arrinera Hussarya GT travels around the homeland [w/Video] - AllCarIndex
Having unveiled Hussarya GT at Autosport International in January and having it raced at the famous hillclimb at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this June, Polish supercar company Arrinera recently took a spin around the homeland.
The true GT4 racing car was taken to Szczecin, Wroclaw and Warsaw were it appeared at the most famous and most beautiful public places as well as Szczecin's harbor. Being a real headturner this sleek machine attracted attention of dozens spectators willing to take a closer look at an unseen prototype car.
As a reminder, the Hussarya GT is build around a tubular spaceframe with carbon fiber parts all around. It is made for FIA GT specifications and is powered by a 6.2-liter V8 power aggregate giving a maximum power between 420 and 650 hp. It is delivered to the rear wheels through Hewland LLS sequential gearbox with paddle shift actuation and a limited-slip differential.
Noticeably, the Arrinera's racing car prototype is painted in an attractive light-blue color reminiscent of Spitfire fighter aircrafts.
After the promenade in Poland, the Hussarya GT will be taken to the UK for further development and testings works. The company plans to launch a road-legal track day version - Hussarya GT Civil - in the 4th quarter of 2017 and later - the roadgoing Hussarya 33 supercar. As the progress continues, we will keep you posted.
PRESS RELEASE:
The blue Arrinera Hussarya GT prototype, the same one which distinguished itself as the first Polish car to ever tackle the famous hillclimb at the 2016 Goodwood Festival of Speed, visited Poland during a road tour which consisted of several photo locations in beautiful Polish cities. The car, which is a GT4 racer with a tubular frame, carbon fiber body, V8 engine and a sequential Hewland gearbox, looked its best against the backdrop of various spots in Szczecin, Wroclaw and Warsaw.
In Szczecin the Hussarya GT visited the cobblestone-paved terraces overlooking the Odra river, with their flowing corners and monumental buildings atop the hill providing an unusual venue for a race car photoshoot, then the car appeared at a park in Szczecin which boasts Poland's largest population of plane trees. It looked positively awesome in the natural chiaroscuro environment. Then the Arrinera appeared in front of the Philharmonic in Szczecin, which in 2015 received the Mies van der Rohe prixe for the most beautiful building in Europe. Afterwards the car was transported to a secret location deep in Szczecin's harbor, and later to the newly rebuilt bank of the river, remodeled for the Tall Ships Races.
In Wroclaw our car caused a considerable stir in the fabulous Old Town Square when we parked it in front of the 13th century town hall, and was constantly besieged by crowds of people, both Polish and foreign, anxious to take pictures of the sleek racer transplanted to the centre of the town which in 2016 is the European Culture Capital.
Finally, in Warsaw, the historical heritage evident in the Arrinera bloodline was emphasized by the photoshoot in Pilsudski Square, named after our political leader who was instrumental in bringing Poland back to the map of Europe in 1918. The square, which until World War II was dominated by the Saski Palace, is now a parade ground surrounding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, which is the only part of the original palace that has survived. The photoshoot ended with our car being driven around the square and around the imposing National Opera House which boasts the largest theater stage in Europe. The prototype returned to the UK for further testing and development.
