It launched the TS1 in 2016, and Zenvo lastly stated final week that it will likely be making the previous few TS automobiles. Three TSR-GTs, to be precise. They’re already bought, Zenvo says. Sorry, “allotted.” Then Zenvo can be on to one thing totally new, or so they are saying.
The TSR-GT will make 1,360 horsepower, Zenvo says, because of an “enhanced” model of its 5.8-liter supercharged V8. The TSR-GT may run on E85, together with common gasoline, as a result of Zenvo says it’s involved concerning the automobile’s “longevity within the trendy world.” The highest pace is restricted at 263 mph.

The TSR-GT announcement follows Zenvo’s growth plans, together with a deliberate launch of an all-new, from-the-ground-up, car in Q3 2023, in addition to enhancing the workforce with a sequence of high-profile appointments, reminiscent of chief business officer Jens Sverdrup becoming a member of from Czinger Automobiles final yr, latterly introduced as chairman in Q1 2022.
