    New TVR To Get Better Power-To-Weight Ratio Than 911 Turbo S

    The new TVR is getting closer to it’s reveal at the Goodwood Revival and according to a recent report will arrive with potent power-to-weight ratio.

    The team over at Autocar has received news that it will tip the scales at just 1,200 kg and will be packing 5.0-litre Cosworth V8. This equates to a power-to-weight ratio of 400 horses per tonne and subsequently the V8 should push out 480 hp.

    Now this 480 horsepower number does not sound too potent in the high-performance sports car world but the low weight of the car means that it has a stronger power-to-weight ratio than that of the mighty Porsche 911 Turbo S.

    These numbers equate to a 0 to 100 km/h sprint of less than four seconds and we could be looking at a top speed of over 320 km/h.

    John Chasey from TVR said “We have been ambitious and rigorous in establishing performance benchmarks for our new car. Our intentions for power-to-weight, size, practicality and quality standards were set high from the very start. We know that the new TVR must be able to compete at the very highest levels, and I’m delighted to say that the car has met or exceeded all of our own, very exacting requirements, hands down.”

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?

    • The new BMW M240i xDrive barely puts a foot wrong. The price is right, it's crushingly quick, more than practical enough to daily and if you only look at the front, it is very easy on the eye 😉 

It pulls properly hard, doesn’t feel turbocharged in its response, and delivers thrills when you want them. The extra confidence and pace afforded by the sweet pairing of the straight-six petrol engine and the rear-biased xDrive AWD system make the M240i an enticing proposition all of its own.

If you gave any BMW fan a wish list and asked them to build the perfect car given the company's current resources, it probably wouldn't be too far off this one.
